Queens Drive approaching Oakhill Road
Oakhill Road no longer has direct access to Queens Drive ahead. Its position remains marked by a narrow "U-turn" access still in Queens Drive's central reservation, just beyond the pedestrian crossing lights.

Care home on site of The Gardeners Arms
The Gardeners Arms public house was situated at the bottom of Broad Green Road, there had been an inn at this location since the 1800's. The original inn was at the end of a terrace called "Fairview Cottages". Long before the building of Edge Lane Drive when Broad Green Road (originally called Petticoat Lane) went from Old Swan, past The Rocket Inn, all the way to Roby, there was a huge nursery at Oak Vale. The Gardener's Arms faced the nursery, hence the name. The pub was rebuilt with a bowling green around the 1920's and demolished in 2013 to make way for this care home.

Former Regent Cinema and St Brendan's Church
The former Regent Cinema and St Brendan's Church in Prescot Road, Old Swan. The Regent cinema was independently owned by Wilkinson's funeral directors. In 1926 Robert Wilkinson formed the Regent Cinema Company and the cinema opened later that year. In later years it was used as a supermarket and is now disused. St Brendan's RC church, quite an unremarkable building, stands next door.
