Not come across that one thanks-will add it to the pub index as

746 Elephant and Castle 29 Desmesne Street, Seacombe, Wallasey

I usually don't do it as a clickable entry unless I come across a pic of it or someone does it as a new topic with the next number in the index with something to say about it
Some other Seacombe pubs I'm interested in getting the street/road number for (if you could help)are

old House at Home, Victoria road, Seacombe (1861 mawdsley beer house)
Oddfellows Arms,Victoria road, Seacombe (1861 mawdsley beer house)
Revenue Hotel 30 Demesne Street,Seacombe
Royal Oak Inn, Demean st. Seacombe (1861 mawdsley pub)
Seacombe Hotel (Vaults) Seacombe (1857 PO directory) & (1861 mawdsley pub Hotels, Inns & Taverns

I am trying to find any details about the 'Manchester Arms Inn' which was located in New Brighton, Cheshire. It is mentioned in The Liverpool Mercury newspaper dated December 5th, 1863, when a Coast Guard/RNLI man named John Cole brought the survivors of a ship named 'Isabella & Catherine' to this Inn.

I would be grateful for any information.

Nick.

I guess so, I don't know if it is a free-house or the rent is to a brewery in which case you are tied.

Griffin Hotel, Borough Road (was 40a Victoria Road), Wallasey, open before 1857 and closed before 1964. Was a Spraggs pub then Higsons.

North side of Borough Road, halfway between Brighton Street and Demesne Street on the corner of what was Smithy Lane which has gone.
