GJ2004 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Hi, I used to live just on from the ridge, so as a guess I would say around 1962/3ish, why do you want to know, I could ask my brother as he used to go in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a discussion we were having in the Pub last night, someone said it was open in the middle fifties but another said it was more the early sixties.

PaymePal Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I reckon it must have been about 64 as my Dad went to look at it with a view to being landlord, i can remember my Unc coming up from Birmingham to go with him, think i was about 7 at the time and i think it was a new opening.
