I mentioned earlier that I thought the Horse and Jockey was a Davenports' House. I've looked in National Archives for the brewery, found it listed, but can't see the Horse and Jockey among their premises, so perhaps I was wrong - either that, or the beer was stronger than I thought!
When Noel and Mary McGuire ran this pub in the 70's. I joined the 'inhouse' band fronted by Kevin Walsh (saxaphone/lead guitar/vocals) Myself Tony West (rhythm guitar/vocals) Pat Greer (drums) and your wife's grandfather W.P.Wilson whom I knew just as Paddy Wilson. Though I do recall him being called 'Tug' from time to time... Paddy did indeed play Clarinet and the banjo, but he regarded himself as a guest (informal) member of the band. I have no idea why since in truth, he was a better musician than I would ever even turn out to be. All things considered.My wifes Grandfather used to play a clarinet and banjo in this pub apparently, his name was William Patrick Wilson, guess he was known as banjo bill! Would be great if anyone has an memories of this chap, he might well of played in other local pubs.
