A nostalgic look at the lost shops of Liverpool - 20 reminders of the city's past

Liverpool’s shops and stores have changed so much over the decades - how many of these can you remember?

Liverpool’s city centre is constantly changing as we say goodbye to beloved shops and welcome new favourites.

Iconic Scouse stores like Quiggins and George Henry Lee's have been consigned to history, along with high street brands like Woolworths and Debenhams.

Despite some of the most popular stores closing many years ago, they still bring back fond memories for a lot of us - from Christmas shopping in Lewis’s to picking out a film at Blockbuster.

We’ve scoured the archives for much-loved stores from the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s to jog your memories, as well as shops from much further back in the city’s history.

Which is your favourite forgotten shop of Liverpool’s past? Do you think our shops are better today or are you still nostalgic for yesteryear?

Have a look and let us know what you can remember.
