Peter,
A little off thread. In the late 50s and early 60s there was one pub in Wallasey I occasionally took a drink in which was owned by a brewery by the name Davenports. The Nelson on Grove Road was very much the place to go. People referred to the bitter as 'Davvy's'. I have never known another Davenports house around Wirral. Were they found elsewhere? Any members know?
Bent's houses were to be avoided!!!
