Great memories of the pubs. Grandma lived on Parker Street and if she was not in I knew to find her in the Raby `snug. Addison Pub, went to school`, North View, with John Briggs son of the manager of the Addison in the 1940s and spent many a day visiting there along with Ian Anderson from Grassies bread and cake shop opposite side of the road.
Great video - quite a few of these bars are still there The blue bell (now a bike shop) The plough (restaurant) The Raby The Grace Stags Head The Heaton The Lord Clyde Free Trade Glendale (Now a fishy) The cumberland The fighting cocks (now offices) The fosse The Scrogg (Now the westbourne club) The county The railway The turbina I remember the walker bars duffies, the Hobby, the stack and the Nelson in walker and the colliery and wincomblee are still going.
My nana used to send me to the county to get my grandad at 2 o'clock on a sunday .doors were locked and a 5 year old knocked on the door owner answers , wi is mi grandad arer, he would shout out load to the lads they were all in there 60s; Wy John the bens ere ye gan yem.
The blue bell Sheila's Road I went in there couple times when I was younger it was a smashing little pub that's when men used to dress up and women did also That's got to be 40 year ago me dad used to take me mam interested aswell when they where young ,we lived in walker a stones throw away pubs gone so are me parents ,and times are now horrible and Sheila's Road is a dump now and unsafe
I had a few beers in some of those old bars around Shields Road in the 1990s absolute shitholes ..but full of local characters made for an interesting pint.
I have had a few pints in most of these great pubs. Thanks for the memories lovely photos.

When pubs were just that - pubs for drinking, socialising and fighting. Not like today’s gastro pubs that have to rely on food sales.
