Subject: [GWYNEDD] Fw: Liverpool site--Allerton Oak
My Hughes family moved from Anglesey to Liverpool in 1902--they lived
in
Kensington, Liverpool.
I have seen a few postings here on Liverpool and thought perhaps some of
you might enjoy this wonderful site:
http://www.allertonoak.com/
Excerpted:
What is allertonOak?
allertonOak is for all those interested in Liverpool and the
extended Merseyside area (the red box on the map). Here at merseySights
you
will find hundreds of original photos with commentary, including local
history, personal thoughts and links to more comprehensive sites. At
merseyWalks there are illustrated descriptions of the best walks in the
area, which also take in many of the sights. Two new features are
merseyFromAbove, a selection of aerial photographs of the region, and
merseyPubs, a selection of my favourite pubs.
I hope you enjoy your visit and I would like to offer you a
warm
Scouse welcome (Liverpudlians are known as Scousers, after the
gastronomic
delight of boiled root vegetables and meat we are thought to eat all the
time). Merseysiders are proud of their region, and rightly so. It is rich
in
history, interest and visual appeal (it's not all football and the
Beatles)
as I hope you will agree. If allertonOak inspires you to visit Merseyside
and take a look for yourself, satisfies your curiosity, causes pangs of
nostalgia if you have left the area or encourages you away from the TV,
then
it will have served its purpose.
By the way, the Allerton Oak is an ancient tree in
Calderstones
Park in the south of Liverpool.
