We came over on that,great memories.
Yes I think I am right in saying they have moved it a few times? I went to the moved one over the road - sold alcohol in teacups - the crowd chucked them on the floor it was like an ice rink going to the bar - Show waddy waddy topped the bill - they were awful - a local band the Lettermen stormed it - that's who I went to see .....….Liverpool ‘filled-in’ the original Cavern Club and turned it into a bit of land for car parking.

They named it the mine sweeping pub - put your pint downstairs distracted - gone - also great for buying stuff in ..... pitch & toss played outside too!…not many boozers I’ve purposefully not been in but that’s definitely one.
My dad went in there with his mates - purchased a round shot to the toilet- came back to the bar all the ake had disappeared- warned me to stay out of there!…not many boozers I’ve purposefully not been in but that’s definitely one.

Looking up the steps to Garston Hospital...or The (typhoid) Fever Hospital as it used to be called on old maps.
The Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine ( the first in the country iirc) had a small annexe there to cater for Tarantula bites from unloading bananas at the docks...by the time you could get the guy into town he'd be dead
