A Doomsday village in Liverpool

Mentioned in the Domesday Book, West Derby achieved significance far earlier than Liverpool itself.The name West Derby comes from an Old Norse word meaning "place of the wild beasts" or "wild deer park" and refers to the deer park (now Croxteth Park) established there by King Edward the Confessor. West Derby became the main administrative area in today's Liverpool for the Norman Conquests and was the largest area within the West Derby Hundred which covered most of south west Lancashire. West Derby once had a Motte and Bailey castle, now completely disappeared, at the rear of St Mary's Church In 1327 it was reported to be in ruins. There is also some suggestion of a Roman site on a street called Castlesite The site is now a small public park, the shape and dimensions of which are similar to that of a Roman barracks or castra. The remnants of a wooden castle were unearthed on this plot during excavations in the mid 1930s.    / @tj..aworkinprogress1102
