Over the past few years, work has been taking place on a terraced street in north Liverpool which has quietly been restored to its former glory.
Tucked away on the edge of Kirkdale and Walton, Kearsley Street residents say the quaint and beautifully maintained Victorian terrace is now like “stepping back through time”. The street has formed the basis of a tight knit community, many of whom have pitched in with its upkeep as well as building planters and hanging baskets to line the stretch of houses.
While the street is easy on the eye, those who live there remain acutely aware that it is at the centre of one of the most deprived areas of Liverpool. But this Christmas, residents have come together to go the extra mile and offer a small distraction from the pressures of the cost of living crisis.
