“Hesketh lies between the Crumlin Road and the Ardoyne Road, above the Everton Centre and there is Hesketh Road, Hesketh Park and Hesketh Gardens. Hesketh is an English surname, derived from a placename found in several parts of northern England and it comes from the Old Norse (Viking) hestr (horse) and skeio (racecourse). Hesketh Road was developed between 1937 and 1939. Acording to the street directories there was also to be a Goodison Park and a Wavertree Park but these were never developed although the 1942 directory lists Immanuel church Hall as located at Wavertree Park. Nevertheless these names suggest the origin of the surviving name, Hesketh. Wavertree is an area in Liverpool, Goodison Park in Liverpool is the home of Everton Football Club and Hesketh Park is the largest park in Southport, close to Liverpool. It seems therefore that these names were suggested by the earlier Everton.” Resolved - That the following names for new street be approved: “Hesketh Road", "Hesketh Park", "Goodison Park" and "Wavertree Park" for new streets between Ardoyne and Crumlin Roads on the property of Mr. Walter Miskimmin. (IC, 20th January 1936).
