i was a frequent visitor to the Top Hat or flat cap as it was known locally remember being welcomed by the scarfaced glass eyed bouncer. they had a group on on saturday nights called the Blue Star Combo and strippers on a sunday lunchtime allegedly one lunchtime a customer got slightly carried away and tried to mount a stripper no doubt the security staff would have swiftly dealt with him. As for Blackburn Centre today the Old Bank is still open under another name during the day as is the Dun Horse now call Zed bar or something the only old type pub that i know is the Swan the Soamses Vaults is now a pop pub, the most popular daytime pubs seem TO BE The PostaL Order (Wetherspoon) and the Merchants aka Last Orders though i am tol the St. Johns Tavern is also popular regards to all
