Hello, does anyone have or know where I would find a map/aerial map of Liverpool from around the 1930's and post war, especially the Scotland Rd area of the city?

Thankyou

Have you tried a google search? If not, the local records office? I think about 1946/47 the RAF did flights all over UK to take aerial photos for development/redevelopment purposes - so you may be lucky.

You could go to the Liverpool and SW Lancs History Society site and log on to their forum - a bit like this but specifically for Liverpool. It's full of very helpful people - again like this!

Hi CountryGal

You could try http://www.alangodfreymaps.co.uk

The maps cost about £2.25 + 75p for p&p

I've just had a quick look for you though and the latest for Liverpool area seem to be 1905 + - 2 or 3 years.

It is still a site worth keeping in your favourites though for future reference.
