Bromborough Pool	Permalink
I am doing a project on the Village of Bromborough Pool. I know there used to be two shops in the Village, one was a general shop including a small Post Office the other was a Drapers. Does anyone know where the shops were situated? thanks __________________

Those books have many facts & details about the village but they don,t mention the shops . There is a walk/ trail with information boards at various points and these show pictures of the shops i think. Start off in car-park next door to Unichema factory (now closed down) __________________ Roy Dennett
