More about this scene
The junction off Grange Road and Whetstone Lane (to the right) is known as Charing Cross. Grange Road was one of the main shopping streets in Birkenhead, and was very popular. The street is now pedestrianised, and with St John's Pavement in its centre is still a popular shopping area. The ornate building on the right was built as the North & South Wales Bank. On the left is the Grange Hotel, a large and well-known pub. It was a Birkenhead Brewery Hotel, a local firm founded in 1865 with a plant in Cleveland Street. 'BB' (Birkenhead Brewer) Stout was one of their successful products; we can see it advertised to the left of the entrance.
