Fox & Grapes

Picture source: John Cox


The Fox & Grapes was situated on Preston New Road.
Another public house that had fallen victim to population changes in its area & was sold by private sale in early 2009. Evidence of its former owners can be seen in the silhouette of a Thwaites' gable end sign by the side corner!

This was my father's local until we moved down south in 1963. As I remember it there was a Prest bakery behind it. I don't think there was a child's play area at the pub. My brother and I were only 14/15 and we lived round the corner on Lancaster place.
