This video now has historic value to it. You can see how terraced houses have now been demolished and modern homes, with off street parking, have gone up in their place. Brill video with hindsight.

I was a police constable in Birkenhead in the Late 70s and Early 80s. The area was a pig sty then. It doesn't seem to have changed!! Can't believe these days that I walked the area all night as a 19 year old with just a big hat and a truncheon.
