Re: Info for Visit to Boro

Pub info for train travellers.
Away pub now open outside the station.
Directions - off train and down the stairs , turn right through he gae and right agai, Down to Albert bridge and right again, 50 yard up road is Spensleys which for this season is the pub that Police have been encouraging visitors to use.

If you go past this pub, through the lights and up road on other side you have Barcuda, up another 50 yards and you are at Town Hall, go straight on to next set of lights(Holiday inn on your right) through the lights and you have 2 streets on your right with a number of micro brewery pubs , only small but will be ok there.

If you get to Town Hall and take a left you have 2 "home" pubs on your left, go straight on down road, just past job shop is Doctor Browns which has always been away friendly. There is a McDonalds and Subway just over road from it. Also chippie, pizza place plus Good Food Joint on same pavement area as pub.
If you go past Good Food joint there is a workies club -Ironopolis- which you are welcoe in. No need to sign in, colours ok and kids welcome. Big concert room with football on tv`s. Had a good laugh in there when Barrow played us a few year back.Everyonr mixing and having a sing song.

To get to ground from Doc Browns, cross over at lights, past Mcdonalds and take underpass on left. Over railway lines ( train normally hold us up around 20 past 2 , takes it a couple of mins to reopen line) from there past the burger vans and another subway on left, through that and ground is in front of you, under bridge and you are in car parks.Our old Ayresome Park gates are outside main entrance to the left. Away end is straight on past the south stand and round the corner to east stand.
