….a very good year, Joey.
….mersey tunnel toll booths.
6d back then iirc.
Also Re. 1956;
Mr Google confirms my memory it was one of the worst summers for rain since records began about 1720.
just sayin like.
….if I remember rightly, the booths were at both entrances to the tunnel in those days. We used to ‘hitch hike’ a lift through and go to New Ferry baths which was always absolutely freezing.
True.
Unlike the ferries that only had pay booths on the Birkenhead side which was a long standing privilege they claimed via Birkenhead Priory's grant to operate a ferry back in the 13th century...tunnels not envisaged back then.
