We have 2 pairs of Ring o bells and Blackburn Arms. Why it was allowed I,ll never know. Was a policeman for thirty years. Always people going to the wrong one and you never knew which one to send them to, if they asked you. Happy days |

Karen has just reminded me that the Tavern is now called The Warrant Officer - still the same 'clientele' though, so don't really know why they bothered! Maz. XX |

Starting at the top end of town The Bell, the Greyhound, the Plough or Harrows, The Crown The Red Lion, The Loco, Morgans which is now a Indian, Q-Bar, The Fox and The Chequard Flag and we're only a small place. Must be a lot of drunks around. |
