[QUOTE="Dirus_Strictus, post: 342325, member: 4116"] Quote - There were two ground floor bars. There was no internal access to each room so customer who wished to enter the other room had to go outside and go thought the other door. - Quote. Find any Licensed property built or altered in the period 1905 - 1938 that has two separate bars and has not been altered in modern times and you will always find that each bar has public access that opened onto the street. Only the Publican could access the rooms from the inside - via the back of the actual serving spaces. This was a requirement of the early Fire Safety Regs and the Licensing Laws of that period. Sold a good pint in the mid 60's, the old original bar furnishings were fabulous and the monied clientele always ensured a good trade. As the write up states, once the area started to go down hill the place changed drastically - but this train of events was very common in all the working cities and towns of Yorkshire and beyond that depended on the traditional manufacturing of the past.
