497 Harp Inn, used to be known as The Welsh HarpLittle Neston, Neston 19 Quayside, Little Neston, Neston, Merseyside

Was here a few weeks ago, wonderful little pub, with fantastic costal views, surprised to see it isnt very busy even on boiling days. Been a few times over the years, should go more often lol.

On a clear day you can even get coastal views! lol

Is the 4 b0re punt gun still above the bar? Was ther in the '70's when I used to visit with my young daughter.The Harp was on our Sunday afternoon run out in our early Mark 2 Austin Healy Sprite> Daughter sat on the transmition tunnel,no kiddy or booster seats in those days! Next stop was an ice-cream at the post office in Park Gate, regardless of weather or season.Can still taste that rum and raisan!

Can't say I noticed it, though tbh, was sat outside at the tables on the front most of the time, only went in for drinks as the weather was gorgeous.

Being where it it, there can be problems getting in or out during a very high tide, such as the one pictured below, in 1982.
The weather was a lot better for the second shot, in 2003.
