Doing a little research of the BGS site, there are dozens of old shafts and adits as far over as the west of Prescot in Lancs, old collieries. Many of the red crosses are listed as false, but many have been found and resealed with infill and concrete caps.
I cannot find any bores further into Liverpool itself listing coal in the log samples.
