B Clarke & Family Butchers has been a fixture on Allerton Road for 36 years.
Its traditional façade, array of produce and its plastic butcher statue make it an eye-catching spot on the South Liverpool road. Neighboured by greengrocers Adam's Apple, with fishmonger B. Shrigley & Son and M. Ray's Bakery just a few doors down, its stretch of the road is a welcome throwback to what feels like a bygone era.
To the other side of the butcher stands an Iceland and a relatively new Sainsbury's Local, while there is a huge Tesco where Allerton Road becomes Mather Avenue. Despite the presence of these supermarkets, which have put paid to plenty of independent businesses up and down the country, Allerton Road's butcher, baker and grocer stand strong.
