Cycled to work today 7c wind 300mph. On the way i came through the centre of ashton. This place is where me and my mates used to meet. Was a very popular pub.the loss of this is nothing to do with the smoking ban but the opening of places like the ash tree. It was the pitt and nelson!
I think we’ve lost about half the pubs in Ashton now. Before I moved here, I remember the Sunday night trips to Ashton, with my brother. The place was bouncing. So busy you struggled to walk down the pavements. Hard to believe now as even on a Saturday night, the place is dead.
ReplyDeleteI thought the Pitt and Nelson lost its way when it changed its name to 'The Bedroom'.
ReplyDeleteNo. The bedroom was someones effort at opening a trendy bar go ashton In the same building that was the pitt and nelson after it shut.
