November 2005 - not much has changed between then and Mick's Picture-a-Day for today. Given the number of pubs which have closed, it's very surprising to find three so close still surviving. I hope they're also all thriving.

On the left just past the Douglas Bank pub, where that car is in the photo, I remember a line of terraced houses with Mrs Hill’s off licence on the corner.
