The photograph shows the infamous Crown public house, renamed Dickie Lewis's in January 2006. Situated at the busy junction of Stopgate Lane with the East Lancs Road it had been named 39th in Merseyside's top 100 grot spots. It was the site of numerous arson attacks having been left to rot because it was not in a regeneration zone. The building’s owners plan to convert the pub into apartments was knocked back by the council and a government planning inspector as it did not fall into one of Liverpool’s housing renewal areas. It has recently been demolished.
