Burnden Boozers

Also, does anybody know if The Cattle Market does any trade these days, have not been there for years - I know that King Bill & Wagon 'n' Horses have now closed :(

Yes it was, but didn't do much on match days as the Trotters.

Pub used to empty when the away fans came out of the train station 8-[

NIGHTINGALE FOR ME.........ISNT THAT SOME FENIAN BOOZER NOW!?!?!? :-k

Cattle Market for me and still start off from there these days

 

Also, the General Haverlock..... it used to fill up at 3.15 and empty at 4.30... could never work that one out :D

 

And at one stage Captain Zero used to work on the door of the Cattle Market but it started attracting ex-Star and Garter cliental (it's his Freddie Murcury Tache I think) so he got sacked

NIGHTINGALE FOR ME.........ISNT THAT SOME FENIAN BOOZER NOW!?!?!? :-k

 

The Irish Centre it's called now but same boozer just a different name, always been fenian.... It's run by a local gangster named Big Bad Billy Smyth :D

Somebody told me that the Cattle Market now attracts prostitutes as they now hang around Lever Street plying their trade - surely that can't be true. I worked on Lever Street 10 years ago and never once saw anyhting resembling a lady of the night, generally just swaety grease monkeys from Edbro!
