Title: STREET DIRECTORY - WIRRAL - mid to late 1930s
Post by: Dickiesam on Thursday 20 January 11 11:48 GMT (UK)

Hi,
Anyone out there with access to a Wirral street directory which includes Parkgate from about the mid-1930s to the early 1940s? Looking for occupiers of 31 Moorfield Drive, Parkgate.

Believe this estate was built in the mid 30s. I know that by 1945 a Henry and Hilda Roberts were there. Trying to find out when they might have moved in. Any an old telephone directories around in case they had a phone? Or Electoral Rolls for the area?

Do you mean Parkgate on the banks of the River Dee?

Hi,
Thank for the response.
I got the address from a 1945 death cert which reads Parkgate, Neston. I know the village of Parkgate on the Dee, so now I am wondering if there is an area in Neston also called Parkgate?
