Welcome to Liverpool the Home of Scotland Road
A Brief History of Scotland Road
Home to most of Liverpool's migrant communities, Scotland Road was the centre of working-class life in North Liverpool. Scotland Road was almost "a city within a city" and had four main migrant communities; Irish, Welsh, Scottish and Italian—not to mention the native Lancastarian community and pockets of German and Polish—meaning Scotland Road was a cultural melting pot. It was a place close to both the back end of the city centre and the docks. It could be a place of both romantic nostalgia and brutal hardship. Community was at the centre of Scotland Road and one's faith often dictated which community one belonged to.
Scotland Road the screen play is a modern day version of romantic nostalgia, domestic circumstance and community spirit.
