A free bacon butty with a pint, topless go go dancers, midday drunks and a "deafening silence" when an out-of-towner walked in are some of the enduring memories of a lost city centre pub.
It's been six years since Liverpool lost one of its most remembered, if notorious, pubs. The Penny Farthing pub, later renamed the New Penny Farthing, was placed in one of the most prominent positions in the city on the corner of St Johns Precinct, next to the Royal Court Theatre.
Opened in the early 1970s, It's fair to say it wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing pub, looking more like stacked shipping crates rather than a fancy drinking hole for the theatre-going crowd. After nearly 45-years serving drinkers, time was finally called last orders in 2016.
