Hey Babby, I'm sure your mom and dad were friends of my mom and dad!! They were also regulars at the tavern! Do you recognise the name 'Proctor' Dick and Floss?Hi folks,I remember the Lea Hall Tavern very well from my Mom and Dad drinking there it was their
for over fifty odd years, they were Walter and Maggie Coney.
It really does look like 'The Tavern' which was my mom and dad's drinking place. I and my brother would sit on the steps around the back, with little brother in his pushchair, and wait for our lemonade and crisps! I loved those days!
This is supposed to be the original Lea Tavern but I'm not too sure about it!!It really does look like 'The Tavern' which was my mom and dad's drinking place. I and my brother would sit on the steps around the back, with little brother in his pushchair, and wait for our lemonade and crisps! I loved those days!
This is DEFINITELY the Tavern!! Thanks Postie!View attachment 75678I found this one.
Most definitely!I would stake my life on it being the Lea,before or after alterations.

Postcard provokes old memories, there was often a "bookies runner" at the gent's loo on the right in the days before 1960 when off course betting was legalized. That same loo was a welcome haven for a stop-off on a cold day when I was a "baker's boy" around Lea Hall and Tile Cross. Also on my route home in the small hours from our nearest to home night-service bus from Colmore Row
