This large two-sided pub is very pleasantly done out and was busy with friendly locals eating free sarnies when I visited it during a Sunday afternoon football match back in 2002.

A nice large open simply decorated one room pub with tables outside to the front and rear. One of the two guest ales was sour on my most recent visit, but it was quickly replaced by a fine pint of the other.
Noted closed in 2018.

Crosby Townhouse (Exchange) (Village) (Suburb 24)
Pic
I visited the Exchange on a Sunday afternoon in 2002 to find the pub almost deserted despite plenty of TVs showing a Liverpool match. Later it was refurbished and renamed as Village. After a period of closure it was refurbished again and became Suburb 24 in 2021, but only lasted two years, closing in July 2023. Finally, I got to visit the latest incarnation, the Townhouse, in 2024 where I found very pleasant contemporary decor and a disappointing lack of customers on a Saturday afternoon.

A wonderful preserved interior with a tiny snug and a small bar at the front, and two lounge rooms served from a hatch. Very nicely decorated with the usual pictures and plates, but not to excess. A truly great pub.

Edinburgh "Bug and Bite"
Pic
Hand pump
A very well preserved traditional interior with a small front bar and two back lounges which are served through hatches from the back of the bar. I'm told the nickname is a reference to a clinic on the site which had poor hygiene standards! I've also heard it called "The Bug".

Hand pump
The outside is an impressive half-timbered building. The inside is nicely done in traditional style and well cared for. The food is good and cheap, I'm told.

Hand pump
A rather splendid wood-panelled interior in this enormous knocked through one bar pub. Lights, glitter balls, etc. threaten a lot of noise later on, but it was comfortable and peaceful when I visited at five on a Friday in 2014, and almost deserted on a Thursday in 2021.

Hand pump
Reputed to be the first "micro-pub" in Merseyside, this place is a former shop in a parade. Inside there is one parquet-floored room with a tiny bar counter in the corner, from which a range of excellent ales is dispensed.
Oversized glasses for a full pint.
Reported closed in 2023.
