Your memoires of the Elm Tree pub and Arbrouthorne Hotel

[brian1941]

I'm guessing that the Elm Tree was built in the 1930s both were very similar in design. On EBay the old freestanding sign for the Elm Tree is up for auction two bids so far .

Something to looked forward another petrol station no doubt the same boring design seen elsewhere. Unlike the familiar Elm Tree façade.

You could hire someone from the Arbourthorne to do some dirty work for you, that's verbal and physical assault !

 

Bit like the "Roundhouse " eh?

Where was the Roundhouse and were the Irish lads in there the same ones who dished out the physical from the Arbourthorne.

The name Collins springs to mind !!

The Roundhouse was, I think, a nickname, for a pub in Heeley that in the 70's was a place you could get personal damage arranged, for the right price, with no questions asked. Never went in the place myself, but heard lots of stories from friends who were regulars there.

Sorry but that made me laugh....wondering how you can make petrol stations exciting

Once went in Elm tree after work with a mate, and he got attacked by a woman on the way out, can't remember why. Wasn't someone he knew.
