Ahhh the railway inn down the village(south hylton) or the top house as it was known,the snake pit in the basement,brilliant times,had me first pint of whitbread scotch in there,me first pint anywhere...good times.
My paternal grandad was from Sunderland, he was born in 1879, I never met him but it's nice to think he may have had one of these pubs as his local. He may have been in one of the photos, who knows?
brilliant. I bet and promise people were more happier then ,when you think we now have no industry's or every kind of job of employment you can think of and name .and these extra political correctness health+ safety,etc etc ,, why man people these days couldn't cope with living ,scrimping and surviving in those days,now big brother is everywhere ''even your own neighbour

Some great nights in the upstairs Folk Club of the George & Dragon where Longdancer, Nic Jones and many others performed.
The good old days the old 29 was the best 🐕♥️👍
I used to watch top of the pops with couple of pints of exhibition. then dance arl neet in the Rink. Great days
Amazing that some of these pubs are still open.
Would love to see a side by side of now vs then

The Chesters when you didn't have to pay to park and a pint wasnt nearly 4 quid
Thanks to all those people with cameras.
To be fair, I live here and they still look the same.
