Well done .. Thanks.... I believe Hartlepool had some sort of record amount of pubs for a given square mile.... something like 136.... Maybe someone knows the actual facts.

Fantastic to see my Great Uncle, Thomas Holbrook, with his staff and drayman, outside the Commercial Hotel, on Hartlepool’s Headland. (Pre WW1)
Do you still have the print ?
Marvellous video, thank you, My locals were the Bridge and the Sun Inn on the headland.
I played the organ at The Sun Inn around 1978! Also the Klondyke and piano in The Fleece, all in the Headland area. Happy days.
Great video. My great uncle and great aunt Ernest and Margaret Dove ran the Cleveland Hotel in Northgate during and after the war years.
All the best pubs all long gone good memories.👍
The Bridge Hotel was my watering hole as i lived about 8 doors along Northgate from it. When Olive and John Doxford ran it.
I played piano at The Fleece (Russ, the landlord) around 1977 and organ at The Klondyke (Peggy the landlady), and The Sun Inn. Happy days 😊

That's so e life and I bet a few tales to tell
I had my first pint in the brus, full of great characters, excellent video
It doesn't feel right the brus arms not being there anymore. It was a landmark, and a nod to Hartlepool history re the Brus clan
I missed out on going in the Brus , awesome looking building , My brother had the Touchdown for a while
Great video guys X
Glad you enjoyed it

Causeway and Blackies both still going strong
I've certainly drank in some of those :)
and still do :-) I have added a credit to you on the description as I wasnt sure if a couple of the demolition ones may have been your
@@HugoVan I think the Fleece one is. That might be my blue PT Cruiser outside my shop too.
Blacksmiths arms still open pop in for a pint sometimes
We go to the Quiz its a good boozer
I had my first illegal pint in the woodcutter in middle lounge in 1974 as a school boy when one of my teachers walked in 🤣🤣🤣
I remember as a child in the 70’s going to the Woodcutter off-licence with the empties for sweets! Happy days. 😊
Must have been a Brierton lad then ?
There was a pub on Lysaghts steelworks site...we used to drink in in the late 50's....name?
Ooo I don't know that one , I will do a bit of digging
Well done .. Thanks.... I believe Hartlepool had some sort of record amount of pubs for a given square mile.... something like 136.... Maybe someone knows the actual facts.
Yeah, there was a time, when The headland (old Hartlepool) had the highest density of pubs mer square mile) I believe it was around 36 not 136 though
That may have been the Headland when there was a fishing fleet
My ancestors ran The Causeway Inn in the 1880's ish I believe (2.04 min), I'd be interested in any old photos of it if anyone has any.
My brother ran it in the 1980's
@@HugoVanare you a Bell? I'm sure it was the Bell's who ran the causeway (Stanton) Paul Bell was in my class at school.
