Holt Farm
Holt Farm on Warrington Road, now almost surrounded by residential development. The tiny hamlet of Holt has been swallowed up by its larger neighbours Prescot and Rainhill. Now that the Post Office, bowling green, baths, Congregational Church and Sunday School are gone, just the Holt Hotel and a few cottages remind us that there once was a rural settlement here.
