Old Birkenhead Fire Station pre-2014
This is the old Birkenhead Fire station. It had three fully staffed fire engines which were gradually cut. It was also an Operational Resource Centre housing many of Merseyside Fire Services' specialist equipment pods and an aerial appliance. It was a large building and eventually the upkeep costs and government cuts led to its being replaced with a PFI (private finance) fire station that is much smaller and shared with the ambulance service.

Wallasey Corporation bus 54 on Park Road East, Birkenhead ? 1966
Route 11 was one of a number of routes linking Wallasey and Birkenhead operated jointly by the two municipal transport departments. No.54 is a Leyland PD2 with Metro-Cammell bodywork, built in 1951. This was essentially a pre-war design of bodywork and was looking very old-fashioned by this time. Nevertheless, this particular bus lasted in service until 1972 when it was purchased for preservation. It now forms part of the Wirral Transport Museum collection http://www.mtps.co.uk/wallasey54.html . To the right is St Matthews Church, which appears to have ceased to be a church from the 1970s and has been replaced with housing. It originated as a chapel of ease.

1-7 Charing Cross, Birkenhead
Built as the Bank of Liverpool, and shops, to the designs of Douglas & Minshull, 1901. The bank occupied the grandest central section (Image]). The pointiest and stand out building in the area, even if it is "uncomfortably at odds with its neighbours". Grade II listed. The central part was occupied by Christopher Boyton, a hair salon.
