Pub opposite Tinsley Tramsheds?


Texas

Recommended Posts

I was reminded the other day of a pub supposed to be opposite the old tramsheds at Tinsley. Now I suppose that the tramsheds, and the whole area, has been totalled a long time ago but the pub (I'm led to believe)was left standing amidst the desolation.

This guy who told me all this was the son of the landlord, a man with the surname of King.

Does anyone remember the pub, or indeed,the landlord? The guy, the son, was one of twins but they look more like Dud 'n Pete than twins.

 

the pub opposite the tramsheds was called Banks Hotel on the other corner was the tinsley hotel on lockhouse lane, and the commercial was on the end of weedon street
