Joanna Posted August 12, 2005 Author Share Posted August 12, 2005 I'm still baffled, becuase nobody seems to know - yet it was so popular back then. I have tried to e-mail the Sheffield pubs website but have had no reply yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldpomona Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Could it have been "The Three Feathers?" Late seventies the landlady.Bless her had lapses of memory and mislaid lots of money which friends recovered for her. It did have numerous names, refurishments but went down hill IMHO.. Old Pomona. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForkHandles Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hi, I worked at the Woodstock Diner / Exchange from 84 to 87. When I started the place was called The Woodstock Diner, this was under the control of Tetley's brewery, which was part of Allied Lyons. Allied Lyons took the decision to form a company called 'The Parasol Corporation' which was under the control of Taylor Walker breweries (I think I remember correctly), as a result all the Diners which included Rhode Island Diner in Derby, The Baltimore Diner in Nottingham, the Boston Diner in Leeds to name a few merged with the 'Exchange' brand which was mostly based in the south. To be honest I do not recall the Woodstock ever being called the Baltimore and I would be surprised if it ever was but I wouldn't put my mortgage on it. Anyway as a result the Woodstock Diner became The Woodstock Exchange, shortly after I moved south to further my career at the Madison Exchange and onwards throughout the brand. Many people at the time thought the Woodstock was called something else, this was due to the neon's in the windows, and one girl I got chatting with actually thought the place was called Schlitz! Anyway I moved on and the Woodstock became the Real Macaw or something, I've often driven past the place but never gone in. perhaps next time I may just call in for a Schlitz.
