Sadly I couldn't see the pic associated with that thread but am speculating as Cashy did as to whether the Welcome Inn used to be the Pineapple.
If yeh went up Plantation St susie, Elephant St was on the right hand side, It actually ran just 1 block, From Plantation St to Birtwistle St. if they were the same pubs in same place, What a coincidence the landlady goin to the blackburn one.
