A historic pub tucked into one of Liverpool’s oldest narrow lanes,
surviving waves of redevelopment while the city around it changed again
and again.
Three centuries of side-street life
The city behind the main roads
Hackins Hey is part of the original network of medieval and early
modern streets that pre-date many of the grander avenues. For
centuries, this lane has hosted small traders, workshops, lodgings
and pubs serving workers from the busier Dale Street.
The Denbigh Castle has existed here in one form or another for over
two hundred years, witnessing fires, reconstruction, economic highs
and lows.
While ships and city plans changed, the simple ritual of sharing a
drink in this alley remained a constant anchor.
Present day
A classic pub off the main map
Today, The Denbigh Castle is known for good beer, character and a
welcoming atmosphere. Many people still discover it accidentally while
exploring the side streets.
In the Action Path journey, it represents the value of what is not
immediately visible – the friendships, habits and skills that keep you
steady when external circumstances change.
Use this stop to honour the unspectacular but essential parts of your life.
