Can you believe there were nearly 90 pubs back then and now only around 10.
Music tracks are by Mike Harding who as well as being a great comic is a serious folk singer producing some lovely music about people and the area he lived in. Tracks are: Down our street, King Cotton and Jimmy Spoons. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Leesy from gorton me and the lads used to drink at the railway pub on Chapman Street gorton the gardeners we had a laugh in those days 😅
My dad had the Duke of York Cross Lane and met Carole my future wife in there, Had my first drink in the Bessemer half of Mild I was 15yrs
Brilliant video in all aspects....wow how id love it to be like that again ...even though i was a nipper sat in car with a bottle of coke and pack of crisp were some of my best times ❤
Marvellous memories Mr Dingle. Wish I had a quid for every pint I downed in those watering holes.
Thanks. Looking at the pubs on a map I am sure they where placed in such a way to extract ever pound you had earned that day on the way home from work :) If the first pub didn't get you the next on would.
My dad had the Duke of York me my future wife Carole there. Had first drink in Bessemer was 15 Yrs
What a fantastic vid and great music Keep them coming
The plough still there
God, a lot of memories. Grew up in & around Gorton/ West Gorton. Great pub crawl. Lived next to the Gorton Brook. Brilliant Vid.
@mcfcsue Thanks, glad it brought back some memories.
I grew up in Gorton Turner Street just off Chapman Street till I was 6yrs old and the lived on Furnival Road for 20yrs. Used to go in a lot of these pubs, The Railway on corner of Chapman Street and Cornwall Street, The Lord Nelson, Wagon and Horses, The Angel,Gardens Arms, the Friendship and the Pomona. This video fetches back lots of memories. My late father used to go to the Bessemer, Steelworks Tarvern and the Railway. I also used to go to the Pineapple.
@deborahwhitney9427 I lived in Carfax St. which was off Turner St. I remember a great lock in at the Pineapple Pub one new years eve in the early 90's.
used to live on number 21 furnival god that house had very bsd vibes, i hear our old house and next door subsided badly and have since been re built
What a brilliant video. I remember most of them Pub's..
Bring's back great memories. Most of them Pub's. Brilliant. Love the song.. Only a few Pub's left.
Favourite pub of all time had to be the Travelers call on Hyde Road. Landlady was Mrs Carmel Murphy a fantastic lady.
Thanks for a great memory jogger
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
Hello, the unplaced pub at 9;16 is the Star Inn on Pottery Lane between Ashburys station and Ashton Old Road, exactly opposite Crossleys Engineering works .I enjoy all your posts -A Clowes St. lad born in 1946.
Thanks for the info and kind words. From your info I have found another photo that states it is on the corner of Hullchester road and Pottery Land. Looking at the old maps I think the photo has been mislabelled and should be Huddleston Street. Thanks again for solving the mystery.
Great video
@brenda6580 Thanks and glad you enjoyed it.
Bulls Head , Had many a skin full in there , just over the boarder in Reddish . my mum worked for Roy and Reenie at the Pomona for years .
So many pubs in such a small area the Gorton of 2024 looks nothing like this now.
We were spoilt back then. Where did all the fun go?
Have a look at my slum clearance video. I guess when the council destroyed the community by demolishing all the houses they thought were slums, the pubs either got demolish with them or the communities that used them were moved away and they closed.
@@bertdingle Will do. I used to find a certain magic in 'estate pubs'. Still do, when I can find one. Each one is its own little world.
@@paulsharp2565 @BeeHereNowuk has done a great video on estate pubs in Manchester. Well worth a watch th-cam.com/video/lrs59cdofSw/w-d-xo.html
I remember the aces pub west gorton landlord was Ged

@@bertdingle Thanks for that, yeh thats the pub I was brought to as a new born baby, my grandad and uncle ran it, and their father before them, they were there up until it was knocked down in about 72ish.
Born and brought up in Oakfield Grove Gorton, I think the Plough is still there but most of the pubs have gone. I remember one on Hyde road called the Bee Hive, but the one i
spent most time in was the Cheshire Hunt.
@user-pf2rx3mj4e The Plough would have been your local but it's good to exercise before a pint :)
Plough still their dearest pub in gorton so i'm told , i left m18 many many years ago , my mums best mate julie her parents used to own the cheshire hunt , not far from the coach and horses on bellvue st
I forgot to mention I used to go in the Cotton Tree back in the 1970's think the landlord was a George Hammer.
One of the few pub still going in Gorton, opposite the Royal Oak.
Hard as nails - hammer !
Bert, the pub opposite the Midland was the Three Arrows.
