A fire which damaged a row of terraced homes is being treated as a suspected arson attack.
Merseyside Police said they received a report of a fire at houses on Great Mersey Street in Kirkdale which started at around 11.55pm on Saturday, May 7. Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service (MFRS) attended and extinguished the fire, police said.
When the ECHO attended the scene just after 8am on Sunday firefighters and Merseyside Police were still in attendance. Two cordons were in place, one from St Alphonsus Street and another at the top of Great Mersey Street to where it meets Stanley Road.
