A plain tidy council estate boozer, quiet when I visited on a Saturday afternoon. The theme tune to TV's Z-Cars, some of which was filmed in Kirkby, was an arrangement of an old sea shanty called Johnny Todd.

Market Tavern (Wetherspoon's Gold Balance)
 |
Opened early 1999, this is well looked after, clean and tidy and serves the usual Wetherspoon's good beer.
The Rev. Thomas Wilkinson, who was vicar of St Chad's, Kirkby in the 18th century, invented the Gold Balance and the Pocket Balance for sovereigns.
In 2018 Wetherspoon's gave up, and the place is now run by Greene King.

This rather pleasant plain working class pub with two bars is another 50s/60s construction on this enormous council estate. It has comfortable bench seats in the bar and a nice lounge, and was quiet and friendly on a Sunday afternoon in 1998 and just as good in 2020.
