About this audio guide
This guide to Everton Park in Liverpool follows a toffee recipe and the women who kept it, from a village kitchen on this hill in the seventeen-seventies to a London courtroom in the eighteen-eighties. It touches on a will with an unusual condition, a rival legend named Molly Bushell, and the sweet that gave a football club its nickname. Along the way you'll hear what happened to the streets that once covered this slope. Best heard on the brow, looking down toward the river.
