PM me for contact details of the last occupiers descendants. I will not give this info out willy nilly. But it could be valuable to those with interest in saving the place, or researching the History.

Saw someone taking photos of it yesterday as I drove past around 4pm.
From the camera and lens, I'm thinking the guy was at least a photography enthusiast (rather than an estate agent).
(No guarantee it was a wiki member though, so I'll see what I can take next weekend if noone posts any in the mean time)

Received a reply from English Heritage,basically cutting the email down to,my edit. If we are concerned about the condition of the building we should contact the conservation officer for Wirral.  email : [email protected]0151-606-2004 Technical Services dept Canning Street Birkenhead CH41 1ND If anybody is going by that way can they pop in and tell them.

Just a bit off topic.  Chriskay,you said Windsor street,I presume Birkenhead if so do you have any pictures of the street as my dad and his family lived there, and from what I can see the rest of his family,bros and sisters lived in the area. On topic,I can remember my sister and her boyfriend and mates taking a fireplace out like that in our house in Lowther st,as it out of date, wasn't with the new styles etc.
