Tuebrook
( Tew Brook named after the Norse God “Tiu” ) is now enclosed in a culvert
under ground. It can be seen above ground behind the carlton Cinema for a short distance.

The source of the Tuebrook can be traced to a spring on Old Swan Hill which is now
called Edge Lane. The Brook flows from here and takes a course down St. Oswald Street
it then winds its way down Prescot Road and then down Green Lane.
Behind the Carlton Cinema (Left) is the only place that the Brook flows freely over
ground as it is piped or culverted, from here it heads toward Lisburn Lane a large
pool formed roughly by the roundabout it then flows down Lisburn Lane then onto Maiden
Lane .The oldest surviving dwelling in Tuebrook is Tue brook house dated 1615 on
west derby road. St Johns church late 1860's, the Sailors Orphanage and Carnegie
Library green lane are other buildings of historical note.
