Before Rose and Crown your on about Royal Oak.It was on the corner of Commercial St,is that the one?Dont know what it was called though.

No the one up Fielding lane hasnt been pulled down its a house.Not the big one opposite next one up.When I was Taxiing I picked an elderly lady up who lived there and she showed me where they used to drop the barrels,it still has the drop and that old fashioned metal pully thing to lower them down with in her garden.The actual building if I remember rightly is called York Cottage now.
