CAN Any-body Recall The Angell Pub On Stratford Rd ,Does It Still Stand ,
I Know It Was Abit Of A Rough Dive In The Last Few Years,
And It Was Used By The Irish Workers For Pick Up Work By The Gangers ,
Looking For Workers Building The Nec Centre In The Sixties ,Before That It Was A Quaint Little Pub , Then In The Latter Part Of Years It Became A Flea Pit , Can Any body Tell Me When It Was FirstRegistered As A Licence Inn
Doe,s Any body Have Memories Of The Place , I Used To Go With My Inlaw
To Pick Up The Lads FromThere And Take ThemOut To The NEC .
When It Was Time To Pick ThemUp And Bring Them Back, Some Would Be Dropped Of There And Some Would Be Dropped Off At Braithwaite Rd
And The Remainers Would Be Dropped Off The Golden Gloves Club,
It Was AN Old Church Converted And The Bars Would Be High And You Could Not See Your Drink Being Poured FromAn Ennamel Bucket Below The Counter
These Guys Would Sub There Wages For 25 Quid A DAY From The Gang Master They Was Hard Drinkers And Hard Workers And They Lived In Around Stratford Rd And Braithwaith Rd Spark brook , ASTONIAN
