Upton, The Cross Roads c.1955

More about this scene
Protected from overwhelming traffic by the encirclement of the Upton by-pass to the west and the M53 motorway to the east, Upton has changed little since these views were taken. The ownership of shops and banking establishments may have changed, but the activities of the current incumbents have stayed much the same. Teas are still being served on the corner of The Village and Arrowe Park Road at the Stone House Café (U36010, right), and the Horse and Jockey Hotel still occupies the junction of Rake Lane and The Village (U36003, left). Rose Cottage (the first full building on the right in U36003) was the local telephone exchange long before the advent of STD.
