What pub is this on the corner opposite the Eagle and Crown in Upton?
Or is it just an advertising board?
The image is circa 1950.

Thanks DD and Bert.
I couldn't find it in the pub index using ctrl+f as it comes up as '13 Horse and Jockey Arrowe Park Road' and I was searching for Ford Rd and Rake Ln.
I have been mixed up with the 2 on Arrowe Park Road before. smile

This Horse & Jockey should be indexed as Rake Lane.
Look at the first post in this thread, it is '13 Horse and Jockey Rake Lane Upton' but the thread is then changed and gets mixed up with the one by the Arrowe Park Hotel.
