HiRobert
It was never moved it was just refurbished and everything removed from around it. Where it is now is where it has always been. If you look at this photo of Camp Hill in the 60's the B & B was just down Ravenhurst St from the Cafe on the corner. I used the B & B in the 60's before all the demolition and I used it in the 70's when Don was the Landlord.

Hi Nick, I've only recently started using the forum to add some background to my ancestry search. I don't have any pictures, unfortunately, and, like you, delighted to find the photos posted by other members on this thread. My great-grandparents, John and Ellen Neal, were living at 21, Ravenhurst Street from 1911 and Neal's were living there right up until my grandad Tom Neal's death in 1971, so I'm sure your Dad would have known them. I believe my grandad was living there with his sister and brother-in-law, Jane and Victor Fox, in the 50s/60s, along with their sister Fanny and brother George. Apparently they had a wire-making factory in the back yard! My grandad Tom was a drover and then foreman at the Meat Market.Hi
I know post is old but I don’t suppose you have any other Ravenhurst Street pictures do you. My dad lived there in the40’s to the 60’s and he’s desperate to find some
Thank you
Nick

I used to work as a barmaid at this lovely pub! I need to know if this is a proper site before I post anything more. Xdated..1989
Hello tadpolespam I started drinking in the Brewers when I was eighteen years old in 1975. My older brother Alec TynanNow I know this is a genuine site I can add quite a lot from memories of this wonderful pub! I was with my boyfriend at the time Jimmy Duffy when we frequented this pub regularly. We loved it.
We knew all the regulars going back to 1974. Every Sunday we would congregate there after the football match which was our local football team Claremont Rangers!
We all knew each other and we used to go back to each others houses after closing now and again. I got into a fight at one of the parties over a fried egg sandwich but that is another story! Some of our friends at the the time was Eddie Lynch, Tommy Broderick and i think his other half was June though i know they sadly parted,just to name a couple. I worked as barmaid there for a while and I remember we used get a lot of police officers pop in from Bradford St police station. Brilliant memories of my youth and the friends we had. Sadly like most we all moved on and settled down. But never forgotten!! If anyone remembers this time I would be made up !! X
