Looking at the Nm thread got me thinking of Wakefield drinking establishments that have now gone, just a few to start with
Old globe
Jacobs tavern
Rescuers (drum & Monkey)
Grove Park
The one that was next to the vine tree?
Spindle Tree
Mitre
Grazers
Out of town (opposite Belle Vue)

If we're talking boarded up pubs/clubs the list will increase daily. Glad to see vine tree reopened last week

O was brought up in the Union - my dad was Landlord - until I was 17.

Sad to see it like that, but no-one can make any money out of that site without flattening the pub and re-developing it! icon_sad.gif

I used to work at the vine tree, and the then landlord Dave Petty ( thoroughly decent fella) used to have a copy of an old document tgat used to list the pubs within tge city limits and it was staggering!!!
And that was more than twenty years ago!!
The pub game us completely on its and tge main blame IMO goes down to the pub company's creaming the off it!!

Can't remember the name of the pub (my time of life icon_smile.gif ), the one at the bottom of Heath common and has completely disappeared. The coach I travelled to matches on in the 60's used to park there.

My grandma kept the Jockey in the sixties and seventies.She employed Keefy as a barman for a while.He was a really nice bloke who put up with a lot of abuse in those politically incorrect days.
