I played piano at The Fleece (Russ, the landlord) around 1977 and organ at The Klondyke (Peggy the landlady), and The Sun Inn. Happy days 😊

Visited mum in '63. Bred 3 kidsTravelling round the Motorways and Gas Pipeline Constructions in a 22ft Caravan and Land Rover.. Australia in '72. 11 grandkids and 3 Great grandkids (Aussies).
Only regrets. That I didn't come here ten yrs earlier.
Hey looking at Heugh , We used to fish for Cod there in the day. Where's the "skelly" gone??
It used to run alongside Heugh when I was there. "Channel lead).
82 yr old. still coughing the steelworks crap out of my lungs.. Thank's West. (Hartlepool.)
Fantastic to see my Great Uncle, Thomas Holbrook, with his staff and drayman, outside the Commercial Hotel, on Hartlepool’s Headland. (Pre WW1)
Do you still have the print ?
The Bridge Hotel was my watering hole as i lived about 8 doors along Northgate from it. When Olive and John Doxford ran it.
Marvellous video, thank you, My locals were the Bridge and the Sun Inn on the headland.
I played the organ at The Sun Inn around 1978! Also the Klondyke and piano in The Fleece, all in the Headland area. Happy days.
Hartlepool born and lived directly oposite the causeway inn. And next door to Cameron brewery. Also remember the blacksmiths arms and a few other's as I got older.
Great video guys X
Glad you enjoyed it
I had my first pint in the brus, full of great characters, excellent video
It doesn't feel right the brus arms not being there anymore. It was a landmark, and a nod to Hartlepool history re the Brus clan
I had my first illegal pint in the woodcutter in middle lounge in 1974 as a school boy when one of my teachers walked in 🤣🤣🤣
I remember as a child in the 70’s going to the Woodcutter off-licence with the empties for sweets! Happy days. 😊
There was a pub on Lysaghts steelworks site...we used to drink in in the late 50's....name?
Well done .. Thanks.... I believe Hartlepool had some sort of record amount of pubs for a given square mile.... something like 136.... Maybe someone knows the actual facts.
Yeah, there was a time, when The headland (old Hartlepool) had the highest density of pubs mer square mile) I believe it was around 36 not 136 though
I've certainly drank in some of those :)
and still do :-) I have added a credit to you on the description as I wasnt sure if a couple of the demolition ones may have been your
@@HugoVan I think the Fleece one is. That might be my blue PT Cruiser outside my shop too.
Blacksmiths Arms
My ancestors ran The Causeway Inn in the 1880's ish I believe (2.04 min), I'd be interested in any old photos of it if anyone has any.
My brother ran it in the 1980's
@@HugoVanare you a Bell? I'm sure it was the Bell's who ran the causeway (Stanton) Paul Bell was in my class at school.
