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?

Well there was A pub on Church Street in 1909 according to a post by Steve, but can't remember it being there in the early 60s dotti? the only other Crown I know is the Crown pub on Whalley from which Stanley's ground is named
