Just noticed this on a 1876? map
Would appreciate any info on it and the Hamilton building then
There used to be a "Hamilton Vaults" on the corner of Price Street and Market Street (picture KH 6 at Birkenhead Library index). I'm not sure if this may have been the bank.
And the Birkenhead History Society had an article on the Copperfield in Issue 72.
It was owned by, John Alexander Barnett & CO, Wine, spirit & Ale merchant, 40 Hamilton St, 38 & 40 Market Street.
Hamilton Building was the Offices.
The Hamilton Vaults was refurbished and renamed The Copperfield around 1970, I think.

I don't think Market St had a corner with Price St.

Park View Hotel, recorded in the summary books as, Lock up Public House.
Could this be 319 in Duke street in index 38 his home address
Lock up Public House?
1911 Directory and Summary book for Market St, I'll look in to it further, see what comes up.
Lock up normally means the premises were not occupied overnight.
John Davie may well have lived at the Park View Hotel, its possible that's what the directory means.
In the 1911 directory for the Park View Hotel, 428 Price St,
Alfred Newbold.
Its possible John Davie was running the Hamilton Vaults for Alfred Newbold and living at the Park View.
Snippet for info on missing soldiers, 1916,
Mr Newbold at the Hamilton Vaults.
