My mum Frances Jagger was the final landlady of the pub when it closed. It was tied to the Hull Brewery and when my mother decided to call it a day in 1961, the brewery felt that the pub was not sufficiently busy to reinvest in. We served mostly the dockers and gravel workers and we were a pop in pub on the way home. We were also the meeting place for the local Buffs club, which was a working class version of the Masons.
