Can't remember any entertainment in there, apart from the pool table, the landlord and his wife arguing like cat and dog and the odd fight.

It has been knocked down now and been partially replaced by houses but, yeah, it was full of kids at the weekend and completely empty during the rest of the week. For about a year before it eventually closed, every weekend was alleged to be the last one. I guess the weekend takings were good enough to see the pub through another week.
It got raided a couple of times during its last year and yet somehow the landlords' licence wasn't revoked.
It was small, dark and dingy but, at the same time, it was great fun.
