A Tribute to our lost Boozers in Oldam and the Wirral

We are sure it cannot be all gloom and doom; maybe it just feels that way. How sad to see so many pubs closing down or change of use. The reasons are many; you only have to glance through the pages of Inn world to get an idea of the pressures our dear old locals are under.

 

It is only when a pub that has meant something to us personally closes down that we feel particularly sad. The pub where you had your first underage pint, and perhaps the place you met the love of your life, is now an empty building plot or worse. All those good laughs, darts games, heated footy arguments and happy times, gone forever.

 

As the old saying goes “ We Don’t know what we’ve got until it is gone”

 

Incidentally does anybody recognize any of the pubs on the You Tube video. Maybe you used to drink in one of them or even own or manage one. It might be nice if someone could tell us a little about any of these defunct boozers.
