Is that the old 7 steps pub on the south dock road then?
Interesting Dock clock survival in the south Liverpool Dock system.

In the 1980s, Architects went through a phase of adding clocks to their buildings to enhance their new domestic style of architecture. This one is on a pub at Otterspool

Interesting design. Might even have an old worn out Liverbird on the stonework above the clock. Hard to tell.
Junction of Lower Breck rd.
A bit dark this photo - but you can make out LFC Supporters Club (former Cabbage Hall cinema) in the background - red car in front.
Spotted this one in my archives. No hands left but still a clock I suppose. This building was once a Lloyd's Bank. Adolf Hilter's relatives once lived nearby on Upper Stanhope St.
Fine piccie taff.
Ship's clock with a difference. Spotted at Canning Dock, Liverpool

Spotted above entrance to what is now Garston's only bank. In its heyday, St Mary's Rd, Garston was adorned with several banks but all have now closed. A sign of the times.

Thanks

Yes that's right. Lloyd's Bank took over the Trustee Savings Bank some years ago. Hence the new name Lloyd's TSB. Being the only bank in Garston these days, it gets very busy.Quote:

The mechanism of the University clock tower. Funded by William Hartley who owned the jam factory in Aintree. Clock constructed by WM Potts of Leeds. Note the maintenance record and spare cable, supplied by Potts. Also shown are the bells, which were sponsored by various local figures.
