Borough Road, Birkenhead ? 1972
Image: © Alan Murray-Rust Taken: 29 Mar 1972
Classic inter-war semi-detached housing development along what was a traditional highway between Birkenhead and Higher Bebington, originally named Happy Valley Road. The elegant cast iron lighting columns were a typical feature of Birkenhead. The bus is Birkenhead Corporation 360, a Guy Arab IV with Massey bodywork running out of service to take up service somewhere in the Bebington area. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761
