Re: Clarence pub, Blackburn precinct 1970's
The Clarence was in the precinct overlooking Lord Square.
It closed when the Cav burnt down due to a dramatic fall in trade.
Both the Clarence and St John's Tavern where Thwaites managed houses.
The manager of the Clarence, Noel was a part time stocktaker at Thwaites.
Bill and Milly Dean were the managers of the Tavern.
I was working for Thwaites at the time.
The Original St John's Tavern was next to St John's Church, corner of Victoria St and Ainsworth St.
The original Clarence pub was on Lord St opposite the old Market Square. circa Thwaites Arcade.
