I can only vaguely remember how it was Lyn as it was a place I often travelled through but only once or twice actually visited. Once went to see Bob Monkhouse when he was doing the Golden Shot. I have a faint memory of my Mom saying how her Mom (my Nan died 8 years before I was born) used to visit Uncle's quite a lot.thanks for your photo of the bartons froth..it really is a wonderful pub inside and out...bernie i can remember the area as it was..there was a shop further up from the bartons on the same side that i used to go to buy my stockings i can see that shop now..up two big wooden steps... such a shame that the hippodrome had to go as both were great landmarks...if any other members have some new photos of the bartons pub we would love to see them...

Yes Lyn, it was a wonderful day in a wonderful old pub. Still have jennyann's Canadian pennant she gave me, in one of my Wife's Toby Jugs (although that may have been at her next visit at the Bull ?). Eric
One or two I have not seen before, which is always nice to see....Brilliant photo's Lyn.....
Lyn. I remember meeting her at the Bull with 3 relatives/ friends because I gave her a painting of the pub (the Bull) and of course at the Bartons. Eric

Sorry Lyn
, just realised I shouldn't have posted my request on this thread, it's just about the Bartons arms,
