Can anyone identify this old Liverpool Pub please?

[Heyesie]

Hi folks
Glad you have solved the riddle of the pub.
It looked familer to me. it seemed very like the pub called the Clarence
On the corner of Spencer street and Everton road
Next road up from creswell street
I have not been able to get up there till tonight
I took a photo on my mobile phone
I wasgoing to post it on here But
This is a Vista computer and is not compatible with the mobile phone driver I have for my old XP
Anyhow the clarence(Im never sure if it was clarence or cleveland sorry)
Is very like the pub in the photo
Except it is only a two story building
But could have been put up by the same builders so looks so like the Dolphin
Never mind
All done now well done folks

Just to add, my  grandad was the licensee of The Clarence in 1914.

Definitely the Dolphin- the street sign says Hodson Place, that pub used to look quite posh when I lived there!!!! I lived in Solva St which was the next one along.

Hi,

Just to confirm once and for all...

Have been able to scan the photo using our work scanners...much more powerful. So, here's the street plate above the pub; clearly Hodson Place.

Furthermore, the man would now appear to be my Great, great grandfather, as opposed to Great grandfather, which ties in nicely, given that his daughter, my Great grandmother was living in Fishguard Street...just across the way from Hodson Place.

Looks like a pub my ancestors may have had a few bevvies in. 

Thanks to Shaun's map I can see three different streets my ancestors lived in and as my g.grandfather and his family lived in Hodson Place it's more than likely the pub was his local.

Hiya guys!!
I'm new to this but does anyone have a pic of Hodson Street in this area as I've just found out my family lived in No. 6 in 1901 plus any old pics of LLoyd Street, Salisbury Street would be much appreciated!!
Many Thanks!!

Hi all,

Eight years down the line and I have just stumbled across this thread! I have rellies who lived here too!

In the 1911 census Henry Pashby was the resident landlord at The Dolphin. His new family (Henry was on his second marriage, and his time to Florence Bellion) was certainly there by December 1910 as I know that their son, Leadlay Ernest Bellion Pashby, was born in a room above the pub. I have no idea how long they remained there - no access to the 1921 census as yet - but I know that Henry died aged sixty-three at 63 Clifton Road, Tuebrook, Liverpool in 1928.

In April of 1910 he had given his address as 36 Hamilton Road, Everton (on his marriage certificate) and prior to that he was recorded in the 1901 census as a Publican at 282 Great Howard Street, Liverpool although the name of the pub was not listed. Can anyone please help with that one?

And I'll be pm'ing Margie for a copy of the pub photo very, very soon!

282 Great Howard Street was the "Railway Vaults" per 1894 Gore's Directory. It was on the corner of Denbigh Street.

Brilliant, Shaun! Thanks very much!
Next question - any photos?
