CROSBY MEMORIES
if you have more why not contact us or better still contribute to our guestbook


This photo shows the National Westminster Bank which was developed on the site of the old Crosby police station in the 1970's. On the right is Sainsbury's which was developed around the same time, and is the largest supermarket in the town. Crosby's modern police station is situated on Crosby Road South near the Five Lamps.



This photo shows, on the left, St Mary's Old Boys, formerly Riley's ballroom, which occupies the upper part of this row of shops. Next to St Marys is a branch of Satterthwaites, the local bakers who have been going strong for about 75 years. Blues Cafe Bar opened in the last 5 years replacing Finishing Touch and before that a pharmacy.


This photo is of the Crosby Comrades Club on Liverpool Road. This was the venue of the St Luke's dances, and still is a thriving social club. On the left of the club is a gym and fitness centre owned by St Mary's school. This was previously a Mecca Bingo Hall and before that the Regent cinema.
