Ashted Row Pub
I wonder if anyone can tell me the name of the pub that was on the corner of Ashted Row. We are not sure of the name of the road it was on the corner of, it was the opposite end from the town. The pub was opposite the bus stop. The era would have been 1940's/50's my husbands uncle used to sing in this pub. He was known as big Bill Bailey and he was a gentle giant who was in the guards. My mother in law told me Bill was often called on if there was trouble in the street. He also apparently stopped a man from beating his wife. He told him if he did it again he would do it to him. This was said in a room full of people in the pub! He also had a son named Bill who was the immage of his Dad.
