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.

Horse and Jockey, was also called the Upton Hotel and Furness Hotel at various times.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

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.
