The Apedale was a large detached pub on the junction of Wilmot Drive and Lower Milehouse Lane.  It had a separate porch with a glass window where they did off-licence sales. Then a couple of local idiots got onto the roof (in the early 1990s I think) and threw hundreds of roof tiles at Police etc, causing a lot of damage. It never reopened, and was eventually demolished. Such a waste. A great looking building. Houses built on the site.
