A three-storey pub on the eastern fringe of the centre of this North Nottinghamshire market town, with an impressive stone-clad ground floor frontage.

The Oyster Catcher

The Oyster Catcher, Leasowe, Cheshire

A modern pub built in 1961 by Liverpool brewery Higson’s, in a large housing estate at the northern tip of the Wirral peninsula, which closed in 2016. Renamed as Brambles in its final years, as shown in the photo.

The Riverway

The Riverway, Nottingham

A postwar pub, situated in an area of redeveloped housing between the city centre and the Trent bridge. Originally built by local brewery Shipstones, but later taken over by Samuel Smith.

The Prince of Wales

The Prince of Wales, Bradford, Yorkshire

A large inter-wars pub formerly tied to John Smith’s, situated on the main Harrogate Road on the north-east side of the city.

The Junction

The Junction, Hulme, Manchester

A distinctive flat-iron pub in the sharp angle of two roads to the south of the city centre, still bearing Hydes’ livery. The new housing opposite obviously hasn’t been enough to save it.

The New Inn

The New Inn, Hunslet, Leeds, Yorkshire

An ornately-decorated stone-faced late Victorian or Edwardian pub on the busy Dewsbury Road on the south side of the city, now converted to an Asian supermarket.

The Byrkley Arms

The Byrkley Arms, Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire

A street corner pub on the north-west side of the town near the town hall and station. On some earlier StreetView iterations it is called the Berkeley Arms, but the street it is on is Byrkley Street. The name comes from the site of a now demolished stately home to the west of the town, that once belonged to the Bass family and is now used as the St George’s Park National Football Centre.

Ye Old Harrow

Ye Old Harrow, Sheffield, Yorkshire

A once attractive pub on the eastern fringe of the city centre that looks to be of a variety of different ages.

The Crown

The Crown, Stockport, Cheshire

A former Boddington’s pub spectacularly situated in the shadow of Stockport’s famous viaduct, that for many years was very successful as a multi-beer free house. It closed during the second lockdown, but hopefully there should be a good chance of it eventually reopening again.

The Railway Hotel

The Railway Hotel, Atherton, Lancashire

A substantial red-brick pub still bearing vestiges of Greenall’s livery, in an out-of-the-way location on the north-west side of the town opposite a long-closed station.

The Black Horse

The Black Horse, Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire

The StreetView image from 2009 shows an attractive small end-terrace Marston’s pub, which sadly has now been converted for residential use, although still retaining the embossed sign panel on the front wall to show its origins.
