I delivered milk to Parr Street c1960/1 when I worked for a dairy, the depot was in Randall Drive, I think the name was Cleggs?

We used a thing called a 'Dandy' to carry the milk crates. It was electric and the guy walked in front operated and steered it by a long handle.

We finished the milk round down Sefton Road and rode on it back to the depot - That was the best part of the job. We unloaded the crates and he would put it on charge for the next morning.

Hard work and had to be up very early. I packed it in when I got a paper round at the shop in Ford Lane.

I never knew Parr Street was there until I delivered milk - It was to a little old lady in either 1st or 2nd house.

It was lovely when we lived on Sefton rd with Parr street behind us,Inspector Watons field one side of street safe place to play under the street lights,Sad time when we all had to move away,lost touch with the older people,
