theimposter Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Does anyone have any memories/ pics/ info to share on this place? I think it shut around 2007 and at some point in the 1990s it was used by David Bellamy on a TV show! It has now been demolished! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone4good Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I spent a lot of time in this pub. My dad owned the bookies next door. It must be at least 25 years since it was demolished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geotom Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) The Bridge Inn was a Ward's house, and George, the landlord, kept the best pint of Wards ever' and I think that's why it was my cousin, Brian's local. The fig tree is still there, sadly not the pub. The pub at the bottom of Jenkin Road was the White Swan.
