The Watch Maker The name of these licensed premises recalls the watchmaking trade that flourished in Prescot during the 18th and 19th centuries. The town enjoyed a world-wide reputation for the quality of its craftmanship. The premises are a former supermarket and a shop, part of a block built in the late 1960s, which replaced a long-standing row of shops that included a butcher, baker and ironmongery store. These premises were refurbished by JD Wetherspoon in December 2011.
