This popped up when I googled


My brother remembers them having a barrel of beer on the bar and filling customer’s glasses using an enamel jug. There was always a jar of arrowroot biscuits on the bar too. They also had a mynah bird who swore constantly. I remember them living in St Catherine’s Road which was not far from the pub. I would love to know more about them. I don’t think we were related as I can find no trace of them in my family history.
