It's kind of sad. I know it had to go, but it was a fairly iconic building in that area. Went there many a time with my Nan when she lived in the area.

I'm glad to see the blood tub still standing in the background, for now.

how sad that this grotty little smack rat magnet had so many followers no
Glad to see the back of it, ooops, wait! Where are all the locals gonna get their bacon and coffee from now that the smackheads have nowhere to nick it from confused
Do all you kwik save worshippers not know that asda and tesco are much much cleaner stores and also cheaper?
Saying that i suppose the local bagheads ran an exellent door to door service from kwik save eh?
Once i went in that dive and i walked straight back out, friggin dirty skags at 1:30pm dressed in PAJAMAS??? Wtf? I`d rather not smell some dirty little hoar in crusty pajamas walkin round the food when i`m hungry thanks. sick

I for one take offence at your derogatory statement
Like anywhere else there are good people and bad people
Personally I thought the Kwiksave/Iceland combined a good shop to buy from
We don't all have cars to go and shop miles away from where you live

the North End Kwik was scruffy, in comparison to the ones in New Ferry and Prenton, tell me why.

If it was scruffy it must of been down to the cleaning contractors, I can't imagine the shoppers at New ferry and Prenton having a quick dust and a hoover as they went around. no

Dogs and pigeons? liar


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

Well why didn't you say the area outside the kwik save, that then would be lack of funding by wirral borough council for the cleansing department.

I found this on the Globe website:

If the local scallies have their way, any new trees planted will end up as bonfire wood.

Shoots of recovery in Birkenhead North
21st January 2009

By Justin Dunn »

RESIDENTS in North Birkenhead are set to enjoy spring in their very own open space.

Following on from the high level of refurbishment work in the Housing Market Renewal area of Triangles in Birkenhead, Ilchester Park has now been recognised as a public open space for the people of the area.

Fifty vibrant street trees which were planted last November are already taking root.

They are part of The Mersey Forest's Green Streets’ Programme for Merseyside funded by the European Regional Development Fund Objective One Programme, The Forestry Commission through the Northwest Regional Development Agency and United Utilities.

The trees will enhance recent improvements to the house frontages in Norman Street and Mallaby Street as part of the Housing Market Renewal Programme.

HMR will continue to invest in the environmental improvements by funding the future maintenance of the trees.

To mark the park being handed back to the community, and to celebrate the new tree plantings children at the local primary school, Portland Primary, are planting a tree in their school grounds.

Ben Greenaway from The Mersey Forest said: “This project has been incredibly successful as it brings nature back to an urban level.

“It’s great to see the trees starting to grow and I hope that the residents will enjoy the greenery around them which they may not have seen much of in their street before”

Cllr Harry Smith, for Bidston and St James ward, said: “Giving the residents of North Birkenhead a park of their own offers them another lifestyle option and opens the door to other opportunities.

“We are delighted to be handing the park back to the people of the area and we hope that they enjoy it as the spring arrives.”

Cllr George Davies, “cabinet” member for housing and community safety, said: “Housing Market Renewal is not just about building homes for people, it’s about people’s surroundings as well.

“We hope that by investing in the green space of an area it will go some way to contribute to the other work going on in North Birkenhead.”



Regards,

Northender
