The Limes pub on Broom Lane was demolished some years ago. It was replaced by an apartment block so I am led to believe.

Vague memories, was it just up the road from the Homestead?

It was, sickly. The Homestead still stands today in all its glory on Wickersley Road. 

Still selling fine wines, beer and spirits to those that have a thirst. smile

The High House, in the Cellar Bar as it was known back in the day, quite an atmosphere, so thick with the smell of weed you could cut it with a knife. Clarkson was often in there.

Later on it was the Mail Coach, it was quite funny watching the drunks attempt to leave through the revolving doors and then reappear looking bemused.

Happy days

Turf, followed by the Dickens was the  regular routine, sometimes with an earlier snifter in the Charter Arms. But my local was the New Broom. The day after four of Sam Smiths Old Brewery Bitter was always a challenging and volatile experience.
