This sixties estate pub contains a nice large open bar side, plain but well cared for, with an LSTV at one end and a raised area with pool table at the other. The lounge side was shut when I visited. I think this is now CLOSED and demolished.

John Smith's, Webster's / 1664, Foster's |
Rather pleasant totally plastic decor in this long narrow one roomed bar, which has a small dance floor at the back. The flat TVs above the bar are impressive. It has a late licence and everyone out in Kirkby seems to come here when the pubs close.

Higsons, Tetley / Carlsberg |
This rather pleasant plain working class pub with two bars is another 50s 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. Unusual to see keg Higsons still available. Boddingtons Pub Company.

I've never been in but judging by the noise it's pretty lively on a Saturday night. Threatened with demolition for the Merseytram project.

| Wetherspoon's Gold Balance |
usuals |
Opened early 1999, this is at the lower end of the Wetherspoon's spectrum, but still well looked after, clean and tidy and serving fine beer, albeit with the chain's usual slow service.
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.
