'Lost Manors..' update #3. Today I've been working on my history of the Childwall Abbey. One of the oldest, if not the oldest, surviving pub in the area. Older than the Woolton Coffee House? Maybe.. #childwall #history #abbey #liverpool

[The Old Inns, Taverns And Beer Houses of Woolton @OldWooltonInns]

'Lost Manors..' update #2 - yesterday refined the chapter on Childwall, interesting how some roads were named differently in ancient times. Today worked on the Little Woolton and Childwall manor courts, tomorrow off to the Archives for a ferret amongst some old, dusty tomes

[The Old Inns, Taverns And Beer Houses of Woolton @OldWooltonInns]

‘Lost Manors: A History of Childwall and Little Woolton through their Alehouses’ - a working title only and likely to be changed before publication. After a break I’m hard at it again. Just working on my chapters on the Holt and the Lee in Gateacre. More updates to come...

@Triumphatism @angelcakepics I didn’t know that. One of the pubs nearby was called the Wellbrook Inn, so that’s how it possibly got it’s name
