Don't confuse matters, Margaret - the courthouse has now gone. The clock is still there.

Yea I know about the Queens cinema Margaret, but I seem to recall the pub being turned into one for a short time, seem to remember an old mate of mine a semi or maybe even pro snooker player called Glen Johnson from Burnley doing an exhibition there, it was part of a chain of snooker halls owned by the chap that Glen worked for, but I could be wrong
