It is located to the south of the city, bordered by Aigburth, Wavertree, Childwall and Allerton. At the 2001 Census, the Mossley Hill ward had a population which was recorded at 12,650,[1] increasing to 13,816 at the 2011 Census.[2] Cultural referencesThe area was made famous in the 1960s thanks to the Beatles' hit song Penny Lane, named after a suburban street located within Mossley Hill. Penny Lane runs between Allerton Road and Greenbank Road. The Penny Lane area is on the routes of various tour buses with thousands of tourists visiting annually. In July 2006, a Liverpool Councillor proposed renaming certain streets because their names were linked to the slave trade. It was soon discovered that Penny Lane was possibly named after James Penny, a wealthy 18th century slave ship owner and strong opponent of abolitionism. Ultimately, city officials decided to forego the name change and re-evaluate the entire renaming process. On 10 July 2006, Liverpool officials said they would modify the proposal to exclude Penny Lane.[3] Notable residents
