Does anyone know the location of Duckinfield Street and what is now on on the site of the Necropolis. Thanks Hilary.

Duckinfield Street appears to be off Brownlow Hill in Liverpool 3 just next door to the RC Cathedral.http://tinyurl.com/9enpl49 There's a discussion about the Necropolis, or Low Hill cemetery Everton, on Rootschatwhich says it is now an ornamental garden http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,524563.0.html and other details on the Lancs OPC site http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/Liverpool/Everton/necropolis/index.html HTH Anne On 13 Aug 2012, at 14:04, hilary rimmer wrote: > Does anyone know the location of Duckinfield Street and what is now on on the site of the Necropolis. > Thanks Hilary. > ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > > Admin Message - List guidelines: > http://freespace.virgin.net/genealogical.collections/AdminMessage.htm > > The list admin can be contacted at > [email protected] > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Hi Hilary If this link works it will give you a good street guide to early 1900s Liverpool and area http://www.liverpoolhistoryprojects.co.uk/liverpoolaz/streets.htm As you can see from earlier posts the necropolis cemetery became Grants gardens which was originally a rose gardens with a children's playground at the Mill Rd end I used to play there in the 1950's so I am not quite sure when it became just a grass field but it would be sometime after the 1960s. I have some scanned photos of the Necropolis as the graveyard and also as the rose gardens if you want a copy.
