Two Buses in Prescot
Taken in March 1971, this photo shows two AEC Swift vehicles with Marshall 44-seater bodywork operated by St Helens Corporation Transport in Warrington Road (A57). The front vehicle is 222 (RDJ 222F) on St Helens circular route 8 via Prescot and Rainhill. This route was operated by trolleybuses until the closure of the St Helens trolleybus system on the 30th June 1958. A lamp standard which was used for trolleybus overhead wiring can be seen between the two vehicles, although these standards have long since been replaced by modern lighting standards.

The Hare and Hounds or Tommy Halls
The Hare and Hounds has been known as "Tommy Halls" for at least half a century but has recently had a facelift, a new coat of paint, a formal sign "The Thomas Hall" and the restoration of the previous Knotty Ash Ales facia, which is purely decorative as Joseph Jones hasn't brewed since 1928! Adjacent to the old pub stood the Ebenezer Chapel built in 1811 which later moved to a new church and from 1908 this site became the Welsh Congregational Chapel until its demolition in 1970 leaving the small garden which is there today.
