Edge Butchers 61 New Chester Rd New Ferry . Have tried 'driving' along here on Google Earth, but havent spotted it. Please can someone give me a landmark/clue as to where abouts on that road it is please and best place to park near it. Hoping its free range prices are a bit cheaper than its outlet at Church Farm Thurstaston.

Thanks Sunny, thanks vanman . That makes it easy peasy. I was only doing 70ish, you'd have thought I'd have noticed it wouldn't you.

Glad to see you can still enjoy a good pie despite those toe rags nicking your gear.

Small butchers at top of Town Lane Bebington do some cracking meat pies--- that good even a vegetarian might take the day off

That would be Pearson's. They are at their best when they are fresh and still warm from the oven.

The Wife brought half a dozen home 9.30 this morning, still warm. Unfortunately, only 2 left, I'll have to reciprocate tomorrow. I think I'm addicted to them.

Oh I remember now. Used to walk along there with the pram - so many moons ago - and bought baby stuff (clothes, blankets, etc) from Okells. The first local KwikSave was in New Ferry and I used to walk from by Fairs Cameras to that Kwiks with the big pram, fill it up, and walk back. Couldn't do it now if I tried!

Hi Vanmanone, I agree with you about Griffith's pies, their pasties are wonderful too. I'm glad to see it's still open, there were rumours it was closing last year.

Excellent pick, Sunnyside.

Remember my Mum telling me about the time she was going home from Grove Street School and all the cows had escaped from Edges' abbatoir at the back - cows were all over the Toll Bar!

I would have been terrified!
