Quote: Div "When you say ' one of' I think there is actually only one remaining !! The Queens.
The Victoria is an Indian, Furnacemans is boarded up as is the Fingerpost Hotel, The Northern Union / Glass Barrell long since became a Chinese and The Black Horse on Park Road followed suit.'"
True, spent many a happy hour in the Furnacemans. We were only discussing the Fingerpost 'Pocket Nook pubs with my brothers-in-law at a family meal last week. Is Holy Cross club still up and running? I've had a few late nights in there with my late father-in-law.
The Weatherspoons pubs must employ the most miserable bar staff in the country, talk about sack the charm school, I'm sure they all have the same training.
