Seeing the photo of the ‘shaft’on the site today reminded me of how many good night’s were had in there,Friday night and it was always choka full with many a good local singer gracing the stage.
John McCardle, Jimmy Dutton ,Brian Smailes, Little Anne(with her infectious laugh) Peter Donnelly, Alfie Fenwick aka The Singing Postman,Steve Walton,Gerry Lee Hilltop,
The one and only Joe Gill(mr rock n roll) and the list goes on….
