Huyton Parish Church Cemetery
Huyton Parish Church Cemetery opened in the 1880's as the small churchyard of St Michael's parish church was full. Here is the final resting place of Stuart Sutcliffe, the former Beatle who died in Hamburg of a brain haemorrhage on April 10th 1962 at the age of 21. The group's manager, Brian Epstein, arranged the repatriation of his body to Huyton where he had been brought up.

St Michael's Church, Huyton
The present St Michael's church dates from 1663 but a church has stood on this site for many centuries before. Churches like this built on rocky outcrops frequently occupy ancient religious sites predating Christianity. Huyton, like its neighbour Roby, were mentioned in the Domesday book and a Saxon stone column capital was found by the church in 1873 also a 8/9th C sandstone font.

St Michael's Church, Huyton
Grade II* listed building at the centre of a small conservation area. The church is of medieval origin and most of the existing building is from the 14th to the 19th century. Although it has been altered over many centuries it retains notable features of different periods - an early Norman font found buried under the Tower in 1872, a second font of octagonal design, and a 15th century timber rood screen.

Barker's Brewery and St Michael's Church
This pub was built in the 1930's on the site of Barker’s Brewery which had been founded in 1825 by brothers Richard and William Barker. The new public house was named after the Rose & Crown, which faced the brewery but ceased trading in 1938 (it was demolished for road widening in 1967). In 2003 it was renamed The Wheatsheaf after the old inn which had faced the church entrance on Blue Bell Lane and was demolished in the late 1890's. In 2011, these premises were refurbished by J D Wetherspoon and named Barker's Brewery to retain the history of the site.
