The Buck and Dog was an old coaching inn next to Lancashire Bridge over the River Mersey. In 1770 it was the house of call for the press gangs. In the mid 1930s it was demolished along with the bridge when the river Mersey was culverted. This ornamental doorway was incorporated into Barclays Bank Image on Percy Street. Image
