Forgotten moments show life and people in Liverpool 67 years ago
You may spot a familiar face or place
Life across the city and beyond has changed a lot since these fascinating photographs were first captured.
All taken for a feature on Liverpool on November 19, 1956, it's been almost 67 years since these images were taken. But they're bound to stir some memories and you may spot a familiar face or place.
From children playing in the streets to inside city pubs, markets and more, many will remember life in Liverpool as it looks here. They also offer an insight into life for some Liverpool families who lives in slum clearance areas decades ago.
