Graham Fell 1964-1965 I lived here in 1964/65 whilst working at Thos Robinsons, where 800 people worked making woodworking and flour making machinery. The pub was run by Wilf and Annie from Co Durham. The beer was Boddingtons which had a Brewery at Strangeways. It was very strong so drank mixed, mild and bitter. It was at that time a very popular pub with a saloon bar where you paid 1d apint extra. No women in the public bar. None at all under any circumstances.
