MarkA, this pub was one of my locals whenever I returned home. Some of my mates from Canny, as well as my Mum and Dad, moved out and upped sticks in Crocky and that was where we met up before moving on to the the back room at the Sandon before the match. Great pics. I still get my chips from the Britannia chippy just across the road from the (ex) pub whenever I'm in Crocky. You can get a bucketload of chips for £1.20 at current prices:unibrow:
Thanks.
Hi Ged
Portland Street was the next street to Burlington Street going towards Hornby
Street but between both streets on Vauxhall Road was a street called Green Street which went to Titchfield Street this is on a map from 1923 also Hopwood Street when it was changed to Gem Street mybe this was in memory of the
Gem picture house that was on Vescock Street which became Sillys Club .

An interesting look at Liverpool pub life from the 1973 ATV Special: James Paul McCartney.

Agreat find that Paul, haven't seen that T.V. special in years. I noticed the boxer Alan Rudkin who once had the big house was also there.
Below is a pic of the Braddocks on Netherfield rd, right next door to the Old Stingo on the corner of Robsart street. St. Polycarps can be seen beyond at the top of Conway street.
The pic is from Jim Elliotts book 'once upon a time in Liverpool' whom I met with yesterday.
Thanks Ged, a great photo. It looks as though The Braddocks had only just opened (look at the newly planted trees). Do you know what year the picture was taken? It would have been a great view of the city from the top floor.
Where are goods irish´s taverns in Liverpool? Only I know Flanaggan´s apple in Mathew St.
Thanks!!
I don't remember where I got this from, I can't make out the name of the pub on the corner but I think it's on Netherfield road, looking at the lay of the land I would suggest it's looking south ? I have read of the name of the building in the distance on the other side of the road, but of course forget.
Interesting to hear what ale ouses people like.
Personally I like the Lisbon, lovely ceiling.
There is an Irish club by Miller's Bridge in Bootle. Definitely not a theme pub.
This Photo taken from St George's Hill 13th July 1967.
You can make out Netherfield Rd Centre Picture and Roscommon Street is just in the Picture leading down to Gt Homer St,,I reckon your Photo tricky was taken in that area Looking Left along Netherfield Rd as we look.
Photo from Harry Ainscough's book "Ainscough's Liverpool".

Looking Back along Netherfield Road, Roscommon St is in the Distance just before the Tugboat pub which can be seen behind to the right of the Taxi
Your Photo would have been taken in the Area to the left of the Taxi looking toward the photographer who took this photo..

Netherfield road= Pure evil when your bike breaks are broke!:eek:
Think my mum grew up around Netherfield for little bit when she was a kid. My mum mostly lived In Woolton though I think.
Pogue Mahone in Seel St is perhaps the most authentic Irish pub.
Paul, the Braddocks pic is from 1959 and they are newly opened.
Thanks for the pics Gerard
Ok, thanks u very much!! My hotel is near Albert Dock/Chaltron St, and only I know a few the city center and Anfield. Probably, when I move to live in Liverpool I keeping near the city center.

Thanks again.

Personally, Ma Egertons is my favourite Liverpool ale house. Its great to take a step back in time and go for a quick 'alf a Guinness in Ma Edgy's of a lunchtime.
We did have a good night about three weeks ago in McHale's Irish bar by The Crown in Lime Street. It was a Friday night and when we got in there about 8.30 it was pretty quiet, but by 9 it was packed. There was a good singer on and we're gonna go back. Does anyone know who he is or if he's a regular?
Should have asked him his name really. It's a cracking night out though.
Apologies for the delay....

The Dock Hotel, Freeman Street, Bhd This sits at the bottom of Corporation Road and is next to the now defunct dock railway. The A554 Tower Road is on the other side of the railway and provides a link between Seacombe and Woodside. Watson Street is to the right and runs upto Conway Street and Charing Cross (via Rendell Street)
Now, how about your competitors??

Meadows Hotel, Watson Street/Conway Street, Bhd I love the ornate detailing on this building but I don't think it's a pub anymore.
http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/2...0214004qc9.jpg
The Cygnet, St Anne Way/Watson Street, Bhd Now derelict and was suffering from vandalism on the gable end.
http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/1...0214006ex9.jpg
The North Western, Cleveland Street, Bhd Still going strong despite the fact that most of it's old neighbourhood has been cleared and built on with new housing.
Hope you enjoyed this part of Birkenhead; It was certainly a pleasure to walk round en-route home to Liscard.
Gerard, Thanks for yer digging, much appreciated!
