Re: Pubs on Blackburn rd
Now compare with Baxenden, how many pubs were there in Bash that have closed down? I'm not aware of any.
Is it just that Bashers are a bunch of drunken bums?

as i did the Dog @Partrigde for 6 yrs n Alma for 2 i would say YES but think its more to do with the number of Asians who live in Accy, cos most of em dont drink.

Ah, but that's because you can't remember back to the 60's/70's. Used to be an excellent watering hole when Doreen ran it.

Re: Pubs on Blackburn rd
Not a single pub in Church
Good local pubs were the only saving grace for the poor souls living there.
