He remembers well the Crown next to Joe Morts, Joe Morts was a place he and his mate frequently visited, and yep! he imbibed in that Crown also. As Joe Morts didn’t have a bar it was only dancing at that place (plus whatever he’s not telling me about!). The Little Crown was the name Cashman thought might have been the pub I mentioned in my initial post and this had rung a bell in the old boy’s noggin’ which is not to say the bell had rung the right tune….confusion being the norm to us old ‘uns!
Maybe there were two Crowns – the one next to J.M.’s and the ‘Little’ one near the Ritz (no bar there either) that started his downfall, or maybe it was a different place altogether. Anything’s possible. Long time ago now. Btw, wasn’t The Ritz and Joe Morts at the opposite ends of town?
