Re: The Pubs of Accrington

The Tanpits Inn was in George St, Nos 14-16, in 19052 - it got re-named Tanpits Rd after some development after that. I didn't know this until I checked with Shurmer's Guide.

Re: The Pubs of Accrington

Morecambe Ex-Pat, Just noticed that 2 Accrington town centre clubs are missing from your main list. Cashy will know if open or closed.

Central WMC Bank St.? (Off Little Blackburn Rd)
British Legion Union St.

Cashy, I remember a place at the Broadway end of Union Street called the Disabled & Discharged Soldiers & Sailors Club...never too fussy about checking your age or membership back in the day. Was that the same place as the British Legion?

I feel this lack of dedication in the line of duty to be quite shameful but on a positive note, the antipodean contributor to this very thread appears to have more than a passing acquaintance with the ancient art of bar crawling, which I have to say is commendable behaviour.

Re: The Pubs of Accrington

Having a problem with the site. I've been trying to add one of Accy's most significant watering holes of the 60's (although not a pub)...the Jazz Club, or to give it its official title, Accrington Stanley Sportsmens' Club. Everytime I attempt to add it, it comes up with the message "already listed", but it's not on the list or the map as far as I can see. Probably me doing something wrong but what?

You're probably in the wrong key. No scope for improvisation
