Ann and Ray Dickson have lived in Woodcroft Road in the Picton area of Wavertree in south Liverpool for four decades.
It's safe to say they have witnessed a lot of change in the area in that time. It's even safer to say that for Ann and Ray, this has been change for the worse.
"This used to be a whole street of families," says Ann, who is 73 and originally from Woolton. She and husband Ray settled in Woodcroft Road after getting married. At the time it was a fairly typical Liverpool street full of terraced homes and a sense of community.
