you and scoops are way off the mark. woodside owned by peach developments in conjunction with peel holdings. the corsair lease is owned by a company called goldtry and managed by company called county estate management but the free hold of the land actually belongs to wirral borough council. The club formerly known as stairways is now called zu is also held on a short term lease by new owners. your conspiracy theory seems to have dissolved.

That may be so but the three places are still linked by the former owners.
and bear in mind that zu only opened after Stairways was burnt out.
It wasn't really a conspiracy theory just extremely coincidental think
Thanks for the info though grin

you are confusing ownership and tenancy the people concernedonly held the premises on short term tenancies and the fires happened some considerable time after the tenacies in question ended. stairways club has never been on fire it closed because wirral borough council revoked the licence due to condition of the building and fire escape

Wirral council have served and enforcement order on the Corsair, its owners must either restore it to its original condition, or demolish it.
