A distinctive semi-circular street corner pub, now reflecting the changing population mix of the area by having become the “Manchester Multi-Cultural Centre”.
The Old New Inn
A small bay-windowed pub next to what looks like a closed supermarket in the centre of this small Black Country town.
The Spotted Dog
A street-corner pub on the east side of the city, which before its closure was renamed “TJ’s”.
The Pilot
Yet another magnificent inter-wars Midlands roadhouse-cum-estate pub on the north side of Coventry.
The George & Dragon
An imposing former coaching inn, once tied to Greenalls. Refurbishment and reopening has been promised for some time but has so far failed to materialise.
The White Cock
A substantial roadside pub, pictured after having been turned into the Monsoon Indian restaurant, but nevertheless still ending up closed and boarded. Now demolished and redeveloped as housing.
The Star
A small pub just off the centre of this pretty North Wales market town.
The Hipp
A typical modern Holt’s estate pub, still open on StreetView. Magnificent sky on the photo!
The Bridge
A distinctive narrow, triangular pub in the sharp fork of two roads.
The Old Blue Bell
An imposing Holt’s pub in the angle of two roads, dating from 1899, that has now fallen victim to demographic change in the surrounding area.
