| Bath Springs (John Kemble) |
Tetley / Carling, Carlsberg, Foster's |
In 1999 I visited the John Kemble, a two room boozer with a plain bar and a nice (but deserted) lounge. It is now very different, nicely decorated and knocked round with just one bar.

John Smith's, Theakston |
This one bar pub with a nice layout with raised areas and a tiled floor has been badly neglected and was very tatty and grubby when I visited, although one area was being refurbished. LSTV. Now CLOSED and converted to flats.

Dog House (Imperial)
|
Boddingtons, John Smith's, Tetley / 1664, Carlsberg, Foster's |
The Imperial was a plain corner house with two bars plus a lounge and a pool room standing in splendid isolation in a formerly built up area. It was kept clean and tidy but was perhaps a little tatty in places. There was a bar, a small lounge, plus another room served from a hatch in the corridor.
It closed in 2006 and after being boarded up for some months it re-opened in 2007 as the Dog House. Not yet visited under the new name.

This pleasant plain two bar pub spent a period closed in 1998. It has original leaded windows. The lounge side is nicely done out, with plain wood walls and a partially tiled floor, and is well looked after. LSTV. Don't leave your bike outside! Now CLOSED.

Old Mill (Nelly Kelly's) (Victoria)
|
Hydes, Hydes / Harp |
The Victoria was the roughest pub in Prescot, they tell me.
Nelly Kelly's was a typical plastic "Irish" bar and my notebook recorded "Music too loud, barmaid deaf/stupid, short measures."
I am pleased to report that the Old Mill is a total transformation: It has a very nicely done interior with partially knocked through seating and games areas. They serve an excellent pint of Hydes Bitter and a seasonal Hydes brew is also available. There's also a beer garden and a separate restaurant which was shut when I visited.
A revisit in August 2004 found no real ale available and the atmosphere seems to have gone downhill recently.

Red Lion Hotel

Tetley, Worthington / Carling, Carlsberg |
A traditional pub with two sides round the island bar plus a front room closed when I visited. Some original features remain, including mosaic floor and stained glass windows. The rooms have odd shapes, to fit the street corner.

A beautiful traditional small two bar local serving excellent beer. Three or four small side rooms, and real fires, give it a very cosy atmosphere.

A large up-market very nicely decorated building with small rooms partially knocked through, and original wooden panelling. The exterior is nice, with lots of hanging baskets. The beer was excellent, and the all day food looks good.
