Condolences to Peter & Miriam and family. The Wallasey Sea Training School had a number of name changes. Established in 1896 as the Liverpool branch of the Navy League. From1907 - 1908 the Home was called ‘The Lancashire (Navy League) Home for Poor Boys’. The name was subsequently changed in 1916 to the title ‘Lancashire and National Sea Training Home for Boys’ and remained so until 1945 when they merged with TS Indefatigable .

The Homes were situated at Withens Lane, Wallasey and places were available to any ‘British boy of good character, health and physique, regardless of religion or poverty.’ The Bibby Line Family of Liverpool had a long association with the school. Sleep well Arther and Goodnight mate.. .. ..jd in Lp.
