peteh1 10 #255 Posted November 7, 2020 Interesting to view that photo, seem to remember so many of those buildings around the Salutation having already been demolished when we drank there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Not a lot of people know that 😄 My wife was born and lived near Sutcliffes shop Ruthin St less than 100 yds away. Nobody ever said where the name came from . A forum contributor ( Lazarus ) research this and found no evidence that this was so. However he say a pub called Why Not on Clun St (near Gower St )was named after 1894 National Grand winner.

Maybe the story got transferred. Yes, I've heard the 'Why Not' pub story before, the pub was actually on the corner of Earsham Street and Clun Street and I think it was demolished around the 1920s.
