The famous former Necropolis that stood at the junction of West Derby Road and Everton Road. This image was brilliantly cleaned up by Mike Pealing. Denis Hargreaves explains that the site was closed in 1898, then landscaped and opened as a public park in 1914, named after Alderman J R Grant, hence Grant Gardens. There are approx 80,000 still buried there with no obvious trace of former gravestone or monuments -

This image shows the original Army Barracks on Everton Road, part of the property now used by the excellent Everton Red Triangle Karate Club. The facade of this familiar building has been allowed to become extremely dilapidated in modern times, but it would have once been kept in military shape, being the place where many Everton men signed up for the First and Second World Wars.Of course thousands of them would not come back from these devastating conflicts -
