Hi and welcome to Rootschat

You may want to read the following link as the same question has been asked by somebody else on another forum

Scotland Road was world famous for almost having a pub on every corner. Each of these establishments would be listed with two addresses. One for the entrance on Scotland Road, and one for the entrance in the side street on which the pub stood. There were only six listed as only having an entrance on Scotland Road, that is to say situated in the middle of the block. These were 1 The Clock - 2 The Black Bull - 3 The Travellers Rest - 4 The Plough Inn - 5 The Saddle Inn - 6 The Brewery Vaults

In 1909 Great Homer Street had 26 pubs.  At no. 76/78 was the Clock Vaults, on the corner of Roscommon Street.  At no. 213 was The Clock, corner of Louis Street.  It belonged to Peter Walker & Son Ltd and then was managed by H.M.Miller.
I don'y have anything for 1960s.

At that date I would suspect that the directories are still in document form which means they are probably held at the satellite office at Sandhills for the time being.  Give them a call if you are planning to visit and ask http://liverpool.gov.uk/libraries-and-archives/archives-local-and-family-history/
