The Dog and Gun..

[lazarus]

hi, just wondering if anyone remembers a pub in Sheffield called The Dog and Gun? My late grandparents used to be landlord and landlady of the place sometime after the war. I'm just interested to know if anyone out there remembers the place or my grandparents who were Joe and Anne Staniforth. I think it was somewhere near glossop road but not certain. Anyway, look forward to hearing any storys if anyone has any.

Unfortunately there were four Dog And Guns including Headford St, 108.Carver St / 122 Trafalgar St /102 Button Lane and as you can see there are No Staniforths at the one on Headford St

Button Lane D&G closed in 1917/ Carver St D&G closed in 1871 / Trafalgar St D&G Closed 1910 and I cant see any Staniforths on the lists of keepers.It could have been that they worked at the one on Headford St and didnt actually run it but only your family would know that.

I think this list has been taken from the A to Z of pubs on the Sheffield History Site.

If you logg on to the site you will find other Dog and Guns of Sheffield.

Yes jaffa1 that list is copied from sheffieldhistory.co.uk,

and a bit of credit to the site from lazarus would have been courteous.

You can see its been copied from Sheffield History and anyone who knows me knows full well that I didnt mention S.H. out of getting a "Ooh isnt he clever" remarks. It was just an oversight, Everthing I use from S.H. that I get printed I always give them credit

hiya alfie blade08. can't hold the fact you are a unitedite against you ha ha

where the dog and gun was from the gates of springfield school at the corner of broomspring lane and cavendish st it was a few minutes walk away down thomas st along bath st it was on the corner of bath and headford sts,

just remembered on another post of mine can you imagine around the fourties and fifties there were within 15 minutes walk around the dog and gun pub twenty two other pubs, makes you wonder dunit how they managed.

ps i can still name them all.

ps there was a barn of sorts and a stable i think in the yard, it was i think used years ago but not in my time.

hiya springonion i remember your g/parents and uncles, seem to remember them living in thomas lane next door to the moss's during the war,also living on cavendish st, and in headford st, the other names around at the time were the shore's who were related to the saxons, tommy holmes the bookmaker albert and nellie smith and pat,sylvia, michael, brian and kennie hague. ron,doug, ridge ray creaser, cramptons,stirlings,

ps another name was billy miller lived with his dad harry up the yard below the pub, there were padley's

.

Hi willybite i remember some of the names, can you remember billy miller's wife irene and his mum edith? And do you remember a bookmaker called Bill Cuningham? If knock knock the copper came round he would hide in my grandmother's till the coast was clear, by the way my gran had 5 boys and 1 girl rita. I'm one of rita's daughters.

hiya i do remember the names you mentioned ,now irene this was irene padley wasn't it i recall a boy named roger as well, they were related to the roomes , also harry i think he had a fruit and veg barrow just outside the citadel on cross burgess st, i remember him walking on bath st after having a skinful and throwing all his loose change `for the kids , and the bookie you say bill cuningham i think youre mixing the names a bit it was george cuningam ( cunnie, a short well built short haired bloke ) and it was bill harrison, he lived in thomas st his son was called brian, last i heard brian went to live in america. arthur owen was a lookout with the waites brothers bill and freddie,another was one called jock. there was always a mob of punters bang opposite the dog and gun, you said about knock knock the policeman, there was another one called ron siddall he was brought up on monmouth st the son of siddalls dairy family, he used to give them a runaround

i once saw him take his helmet off to peer at them round the corner of bath and thomas sts in fact i wrote on another post about the time as he was a local lad he knew all the ins and outs he once went in elliots pub and asked if he could use their back yard lav and he climbed over the wall into a yard near brush works and strolled down the entry to be in the midst of the punters,they had a real shock.

hiya again just remembered another dog tale, no pun intended, about the time we were having a friendly match one thursday before christmas that year we were playing the pub on spital hill, can't remember its name but will find it amongst the grey cells, anyway i think it was boxing day there was a shooting and some were killed, often wondered if they played on that night. a/ blade just remembered the pub name it was the east house.
