I think my first pint was in the AEU club on the corner of Paxton St. and Blackburn Road, 10p if I remember correctly. I remember Johnnie Walker taking me in the King's on my seventeenth birthday and telling Frank Daniels it was my eighteenth, free beer all night. First local was the Peel Park.

the castle pub may be grubby now but when john and marie whittam were there it certainly was not they ran the castle for 17years and the brewery during that time scale would not have allowed them stay so long if they were not satified with the running of the pub
