| Alice's Place (The Blossoms) (Toll Bar) "Bent's House" | Trophy / 4X | This plain knocked through one bar pub has 1970s style decor except for the 1950s door. There is a function suite at the back. On my most recent visit the bitter was sour and we had to have a lager instead. Not visited since the latest renaming.

| Cleveland Arms | Thwaites / Carling, Carlsberg, Warsteiner |
A well cared for pub with one bar plus a partially knocked through side room, and a pool room at the back. It is unusual nowadays to see cask mild available. The decor is nicely restrained traditional, the beer is excellent, and the only negative I noted was the too loud jukebox. Noted closed in 2011. Last visited 2003. |
31 Bebington Road / Undeley Terrace |
| Farmers Arms | Falstaff, Tetley / Carlsberg | The rather naff looking "bog wall" exterior conceals a plain, slightly tatty interior in this two-sided friendly pub. Closed in 2010 and now an Indian restaurant. Last visited 2003. |

| Great Eastern | Banks's / Heineken | A plain but well looked after bar side, and a 'parlour' not visited. The four hand pumps were all off. I'm advised the pub originally featured an number of relics from Brunel's SS Great Eastern, which was broken up at Rock Ferry. Now closed and demolished. Last visited 2000. |
New Ferry Road / Shorefields |
| Little House | Trophy / 4X, Labatts, Stella | In this three bar pub the decor in the side bar is pale wood floor and bare brick walls. The back room is (fake) half-timbered. LSTV. In 2006 reported as closed and demolished. Free food

New Chester Road / Earl Street |
| Queens Hotel | John Smith's / Carling, Foster's, Miller | The scruffy exterior hides a pleasant knocked through well cared for one bar pub, perhaps slightly tatty in places. Music too loud. LSTV. In 2007 I learned this had been closed and demolished to make way for a supermarket. Last visited 2003. |
Bebington Road / Brook Street |
| Railway Inn (The Railway) | Directors, John Smith's / Carling, Foster's, Stella |
On the 2003 sign, the first A had a circumflex and the second A had two dots underneath it in a spoof of some Nordic language or other. By 2011 it had gone back to more normal name. Plain pleasant interior decor with a pale wood floor. A friendly, clean and tidy pub.
