Re: Pubs in old & new acc
Ok .. a further 'questchun' :
Were the Clay Inn/Good Ale Tomorrow for Nothing and Mandrock Inn former Beer houses ? Won't help much like, but they would have been more likely to have been in the middle of a row of terraced of houses rather than corners.
A straightforward reply appreciated ... know it will be difficult ...

Streigtforrad wi thee, miriculs a con du, bud thimpossible teks abit longer..
Clay Inn, Good Ale Tomorrow and Mandock Inn, are as they are named where I found them, no suggestion they were ever classed as Ale Houses,
and at the corner of a street

Believe what you like. It did exist, found both the name of the Inn and the Landlord's name, he was 54 and his wife 58.

Well, this fits in with the one I found in the 1841 census ... married to an Ann Sandiford, living in Abbey Street then. They would have been these ages in 1861 ..' course can't get into the address ... Just house schedule 190. Would need to spend some money .. if I get on the computers at the library, does it allow you free access into these details ?
Will have a stab that they were still at Abbey Street. Presumed they had moved though .... ??

Pubs in old & new acc
Following details from "Accrington as it was" by Brian Ashton. Photos from Accy Library.
"Good Ale Tomorrow for Nothing" - so said the sign over the beerhouse that stood on the corner of Church Street and Warner Street, known years ago as Britcliffe's Corner. Tomorrow, like free ale, never came. The black and white photo on the R.H. side shows the site of the beerhouse.
"coloured photo showing the premises being altered to make way for a restaurant".
So, have I won on this one Retlaw?
