The Pineapple

Picture source: Richey Pull


A former Wilson's House The Pineapple on the corner of Johnson Street and Addison Street was described as lively local in the 1986 CAMRA Guide. It is thought to have closed later in the decade and has since been converted into two houses.

I don’t know the exact year it closed but by the time I was born in ‘92, it had been bought by my grandfather Mohammed Sharif. I grew up here with a lot of cousins. I remember the old bar still existing in the corner and as kids we would frequently crawl under the red velvet pub seats and burn ourselves on the iron pipes. The cellar is still in use, mainly for storage.
It isn’t two houses, but one large one and my cousins still live there.
