Lee Park springs to mind (79c/79d pre deregulation) Naylorsfield (73) Broadgreen (long ago on a totally different route 76) some destinations where seen on short journeys too Wavertree Clock Tower was shown on 79s running in to PAR ,Likewise Smithdown Road on 60s running in, and Taggart Avenue was shown on 61s.
More include Bowring Park (6A/6D), Edge Lane (6/26E/27E/40 plus industrial services), Woolton (4/5/73), Dingle (1/3), Seaforth (1), Pier Head (too many to name). The list is inexhaustable.

Plus several factories & collieries that used to have works services.
Netherton Village which is the turning circle on Northern Perimeter Road is longer used although the turning circle is still there, used to be terminus for the 55 & old 30-30A.
Eastham Village old Birkenhead route 39 most buses bypass the Village
Bromborough Acre Lane old terminus for the 28-28A also also Brookhurst Estate old 42-43 terminus before 28-42 being extended to Mill Park.
Stork Factory used by route 00 until the mid 70s
Moreton Shore 22 & 77 terminus before the 77 merged with the 3 & 22 extended to Leasowe, which brings another terminus no longer used Castleway North/Leasowe Road although blinds on the 22 showed Leasowe.
Moreton Bermuda Road buses no longer terminate at this location.
Meols buses tend to go through Meols old C22-C23 later becoming 22-23 terminus.

The 55 and 30A did display 'Netherton Village' for the Northern Perimeter Road but that was inaccurate. Netheron Village does exist a few hundred metres further on. The 55 now passes it on its way to the Old Roan. Many, many years ago it was the terminus for the original 53A that went from the Black Bull to Netherton, possibly the shortest bus route in the world. I think it had a running time of 9 minutes!

Take a look at this map from 1981

quite a few more by the same member uploaded onto that site. Not sure but i think Northern Perimeter Road wasn't a through road as it is nowadays, so buses couldn't extend to Old Roan as they do today. Interestingly at D-Reg the 55 briefly became a circle route with a new number 53 replacing part of the old 28, think was around 1988 when the 55 started to terminate at Old Roan.

Very interesting map. The Northern Perimeter Road was built in sections as the housing estate was built. The first ten metres of the original country lane that existed prior can still be seen close to where the much-awaited Thornton by-pass is being built now. Incidentally, I stand corrected. The 53 went to Netherton Village and the 53A went to Netherton (Magdalene Square).
