From Birkenhead North station platform
Looking halfway to Birkenhead Park station. Underneath, nearest, Ilchester Road, Buccleuch Street &, furthest, Lincoln Street girder road bridges. Formerly known as 'bomb alley' to train drivers, due to the nature of having to travel underneath the bridges, in one of the roughest parts of Birkenhead, before the River Street houses were demolished. The redbrick tunnel archway, barely visible in the distance, goes beneath Corporation Road.

Sad old building
Former gate house to the docks, now in a sad state of disrepair.
It must have been quite a handsome building in its day.

Birkenhead North Station
The view from the Ilchester Road overbridge, looking down the line towards West Kirby and New Brighton. In the 49 years since Ben Brooksbank's historic photo http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1802063 the through line on the right has been removed along with the semaphore signals, telegraph poles and canopy to the footbridge. Perhaps the most noticeable change between the two photos (taken in the same month) is the encroachment of trees and shrubs on both banks of the cutting. All the houses to the right have been demolished and those in the distance have been replaced by the Bidston Moss recycling centre.
