| Difficult to match the adrenalin of going into the Iron Lung at aged 15, with the challenge of getting served (actually that bit was usually easy) and avoiding trouble with the hard looking locals. In reality everyone was probably in the same boat - trying to outstare everybody else- so it rarely got too hairy. And the atmosphere successfully repelled the Kevins (modern day Chavs)into Annies Wine Bar & the Boot & Sharon, to leave behind a decent drinking crowd with plenty of personality. Coupled with the unusually tasty beer, it will be hard to beat, and sadly missed. tdudley - 20 Feb 2006 00:21 |
| Sorry about the spelling mistakes. I meant 'Just' and 'Hindsight'. Still no loss (like my spelling). anthony2 - 12 Aug 2005 02:41 |
| RIP Iron Horse - It's a shame that when you closed, you let your customers destroy the other pubs in the area - those with customers who wanted to be left alone (perhaps with those who justed wanted to read a newspaper alone)in peace. In hindsite, a block of flats is the best that could have happened to you. anthony2 - 12 Aug 2005 02:30 |
| Pub now demolished, believed flats to be constructed on site. cjfield1966 - 26 Nov 2004 16:55 |
| My girlfriend used to warn me about the "Iron Lung", I did eventually go in. As with most things she was dead right. But it was a good location. TC - 1 Sep 2004 20:09 |
