Title: Dock Hotel Pub Birkenhead
Post by: Hogan on Saturday 07 October 06 09:27 BST (UK)

Hello
Can anyone tell me if the Dock Hotel Pub on Freeman street is still there, and if so is it open for business?
members of my family John and Sarah(cissy)Hogan ran the pub from the late 1940`s to the 1960`s.
do any old photos exhist of the pub? or can anyone take me one if its still there. if it is there im going to go over for a visit.

many thanks

Tony.

Don't know to be honest, but there is a cached page on The Buz Magazine Online, no idea how old it will be http://tinyurl.com/hhvjb but it gives a phone number!

Still seems to be there

Just had a look on yell.com and there is a Dock Hotel listed under pubs on 4 Freeman Street.
