holiver   10 #13 Posted August 13, 2017 The cartwheel was at brookhouse,but it is now closed.  Correct jackanne, perhaps Cyclone is confusing Anston with Aston. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Cyclone   10 #14 Posted August 13, 2017 Perhaps you are, you should read the thread more carefully. There was never a pub called the cart wheel in Anston (or Dinnington) which is what you claimed.  ---------- Post added 13-08-2017 at 20:36 ----------   The "Cart Wheel" is probably the one you are thinking of in Anston.  In black and white Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

stuartw   10 #18 Posted August 16, 2017 As an ex old anstonian woefuuly reading some of the replies regarding a pubs name in anston, may i respectfully throw a little light on this subject. Firstly no such pub called the cartwheel existed in anston-the cartwheel pub and restaurent was in brookhouse, now thats out of the way here is a resume' of all the public houses that existed in anston both north and south. The leeds arms (run by mr &mrs hooton 50's 60's) the loyal trooper (run by mr harry burdett 50's 60's)-both these pubs in south anston. The blacksmighs arms (run by mr joe draycott 50's &60s) the cutler was built in 1965 to replace the blacksmiths arms and joe draycott took over as landlord, the old blacksmiths was converted into flats. Lastly the wee willie, a lovely youngers pub run by ken harvey on nursery road later to unfortunately change its name to the little mester (god knows why) this became a sticky carpet sky tv jukbox establishment how awful!!. I hope this throws some light on the subject and lays some of the myths re these once cherished establishments to rest once and for all.

Cyclone   10 #20 Posted August 16, 2017 As someone who still lives in north anston i can assure you that the Little Mester is not a sticky carpet juke box establishment.  As the Wee Willy and later the Williams Bar it had it's license revoked several times due to complaints from people living nearby about loud music, broken glass, drinking on the street, and anti social behaviour. When it reopened I think there was a condition about not allowing drinks out into the car parking area at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Although it may have been long gone by the time of the 1950s-60s. As the Wee Willy and later the Williams Bar it had it's license revoked several times due to complaints from people living nearby about loud music, broken glass, drinking on the street, and anti social behaviour.
