Walk Down This Road And Enter 1800s Liverpool

Описание: Gordon Place is a short, narrow cul-de-sac with a terrace of early Victorian cottages on both sides.
In scale and character it is more typical of the old streets of the City Centre and inner districts like Everton in the north end of the City than in outskirts like Mossley Hill.
From about the 1840s Liverpool’s rapidly expanding population gave rise to waves of high density housing like this.
Tiny terraces were erected in any spare space available to meet the massive growing demand for accommodation.
Many were even built within the back gardens of large mansion houses.
The vast majority of Liverpool's narrow cobbled streets and passages have long since disappeared but Gordon Place survives to remind us of them.
This street has no pavements and its surface is unusual in that it is finished with a dense brick paver with a diagonal surface pattern and a stone sill at the end. There is no car parking in Gordon Place.

Stanley Terrace, the next street along, is another early Victorian survivor. It is even narrower than Gordon Place and its surface is plainer.
