Use to drink in the Childwall Abbey pub. Visited the riding school many times with my cousin. Use to have our own stables on the outskirts of Netherley, so there was common interest. Memories.
Another great video - brings back some very nice memories. Its always a pleasure to see one of your videos. Nice houses and a lovely area everywhere you look!
My grandma lived out her adult life in good shepherd convent, was buried there,we haven't been able to get any information as to where all the convent interred bodies are,I've tried for years to trace them. Thanks for a great tour.
Great video. I lived just down the road on Givenchy Close as a kid in the mid sixties. There used to be riding stables behind Childwall Abbey back then and I would hang out there at the weekends. Great memories...
@@merseydave1 I know where you mean, but my memory stops at the perimeter of the paddock to the rear left side of the stables. The stables were run by an American (or Canadian) called Mr. Randle and his daughter Cathy.
Another great video ! I went to Childwall College of Further Education in 1976, after studying in S.F.X. College, Woolton, great memories of both places 👍.
I was holding on to the chair as you drove it took me back to Warks back roads yikes But then your voice and expression is so relaxing its like meditation but on a ride.
Hard to say really, I've got friends in Childwall who love living there. I'm not sure anywhere is totally safe. I think Woolton is nicer but that's probably bias 🤔
The real interesting view of the vehicles in Liverpool and perhaps all of England is that the drivers park the cars on the sidewalk. Here in California and the USA you don't do that. The engineers and city planners left room for parking. Wide streets etc...!
It has recently been made illegal to park on the pavement, but it is up to local councils to enforce the law. Many haven't because the roads are narrow and it would block moving traffic. Many roads were made before cars arrived and people had horses and carts.

@@Jeff1photo I understood the pre-vehicle historical reasons. Just like in México. Cities from 1535 and same scenario but they have parking garages in the city or many homes have garages.
There weren’t any city planners in Chidwall.. the place just grew on its own, like most old places in UK. Streets and narrow alleyways at strange angles.
There was a big old mansion across the road from Childwall Abbey it is now a nursing home I think it was called Elm House. It was owned by a Jewish GP doctor Dr Bill Dove and his wife Elizabeth he was also a member of Woolton golf club. His wife was the sister of the tory 👹 Foreign secretary when the Falklands war was ongoing Lord Bill Carrington.

Don't forget the old cricket pitch !
@@merseydave1 Can't remember that, but I still remember the names of most of the horses...
@@pscott000 As you looked at the enerance of the horse stables, it was at the left of it and beyond it

@@pscott000 My Brothers went there in the early / mid 1970s
Brilliant. Thank you. Years since I was in Childwall. Looks nice. Must make a trip xxx

Another great video !

I think the collage closed down in the mid/late 1980s

Great video. Very informative and well made. Where would you say is a nicer and safer place for a young family, Childwall or Woolton?

Helen runs a brilliant Quiz night every Monday in there
Thank you so enjoyed thst🙏
I used to go Horse riding at the side of the pub Mr Rendle was the owner. My Brother was married in The Church Happy Days😃
Very interesting 🧐
Enlightening.
Good luck with your suspension traveling over those speed humps at that speed!
It looks faster on video somehow.
For a second there, looking at the thumbnail, I thought it said "Child Wallaby".
That's a whole different video 😆

There is a tunnel between the pub and church,
Hi Jeff did you do another Childwall video?
Hi, no I never followed it up.
I lived in Woolton and my mum is still there. I have never been to that part of childwall. I will have to visit
