Butlers chippy if my memory serves me right but will stand corrected as not 100%sure 🤔Think the pub your on about was the Wellington? 

They were  Butlers on Botham St but the chippy up there was run by a Len Enzer I believe.

Lived at 2 winco road grimesthorpe near Jimmy child's yard anyone remember 1950/60 there

 

If I remember correctly it was Jimmy Childs who demolished the Grand Hotel in 1973 along with the famous Buccaneer pub.

I visited the yard to buy timber for our house which I was renovating at the time.

echo.

The Hodson pub was at the corner of Draper Street and Carlisle Road.

          Yes they did, I worked there as a delivery lad 1961-62 at Gowers & Burgons-Lyons Street/Petre Street in Pitsmoor.

 

    I've just found this on the Gower & Burgon site. 

    Guess what , I did that there for two years and left in August / 60. Did you still have a van for the Friday deliveries. I used to have about twenty five orders and made more in tips that night than I got for the full week. The divers name was Len I think.
