The area is occupied largely by Victorian terraced houses. A number of local shops, including newsagents and convenience stores as well as some supermarkets exist along Kensington, Prescot Road and Edge Lane, the area`s three main roads. Many shop fronts have been refurbished by the Government`s New Deal for Communities programme.[2] The area boasts a number of traditional Liverpool pubs.[3] Kensington is also home to the historic Deane Road Jewish Cemetery, which was awarded £494,000 in 2010 by the Heritage Lottery Fund to aid restoration.
