Princes Road (Liverpool)
Summary

Street in Toxteth, Liverpool, England

Princes Park]] where Croxteth, Devonshire, and Kingsley Roads join, northwest about one kilometre to Upper Parliament Street. It is paralleled along most of its length by Princes Avenue, with a tree-lined strip between them, where there were formerly tram rails.

In Liverpool's nineteenth-century heyday, Princes Road was a grand avenue of merchants' houses, some of which have since fallen into disrepair or been demolished.
