Re: Pubs that are no more
 

Dont think anybodys mentioned the one that used to be on the bus station on Peel St next to where the newsagents is today. You had to go up a flight of stairs to get to it, a very small bar in the early 90's? Cant remember its name though.

That was a trick question Cashy....A distant relative of mine through marriage was the landlord......Alan Dewhurst.......He left there to take over the Boot at Burnley and then to the Hare and Hounds at Clayton where he spent many years and finally retired from there......If your still out there Alan.....make yourself known.
We both went to his brother Jacks wedding in Hoddlesden to my cousin...now sadly no longer with us....me at fourteen...Alan at sixteen really got to know the strength of real ale....we were both legless.

Re: Pubs that are no more
 

You gotta be kidding me? Alan is my surrogate dad, married to Pam. He's got four kids, Chris, Mandy, Gill and Mick. I'll PM you with rest.
