The portion of the corner of Warner Street was formerly a beerhouse that went by the name of "Good Ale tomorrow for Nothing" - needless to say tomorrow never comes. The premises have long associations with the Britcliffe's family, and became well known as Britcliffe's Corner".
And that is good enough for me!
