The Jolly Tars were a performance troup from the 40s and 50s who used to perform for tourists at the prom end of Victoria Road (where Kiddy Corner used to be). Also, the Tramway pub used to be a Safeway supermarket before the big Morrisons opened further out Victoria Road.
And this is why I love TH-cam, you can learn so much.
The big Morrisons was of course a Safeway for many a year before becoming a Morrisons.
The jolly tars were a performance 🎭 out Victoria road in Blackpool
When my parents moved to the area (10 years ago), there were 7 banks in that very same area!
There are now 3 left!
Banks leaving areas equates only too a place declining rapidly and the money becoming non existent!
Cleveleys thrived when Tesco's was there but as that moved on the high street grew quieter.
Along with Wilko's now another vacant building- it has now become a shadow of it's former self.
Really sad to see.
Great video stephen , very atmospheric.
Glad you enjoyed it
I thought it looked a bit dead, Sunday night everywhere is dead.
He loves his trees does stephen! Great video again mate! Well done 👏
Cleveleys is affectionately known as "God's waiting-room" at work.
That's a really good Launderette at 5:35. I use it to wash my Down Jackets and synthetic duvets in the large washing-machines and large Tumble Dryers.
The sad thing is that its cheaper to buy a new synthetic duvet and throw away the old duvet than it is to wash and tumble-dry the old duvet. 😔😔
Duvets are like printers, it's cheaper to throw away your printer when the ink runs out and buy a new printer because it's cheaper than new ink.
@@PlasticGirl65 I have a Lazar Printer and the cartridges last years. 😇😇
@@frankinblackpool- mine’s a laser printer, but it’s still the same.
No brothels and beer monsters here!
Not even at Wetherspoons lol 🍺🍺🍺
Many happy memories from visiting my Grandparents who lived there from the mid 70’s to late 80’s. I visit a couple of times of year and it amazes me how many shops are still there that were there back in the day. Fave place - The Royal British Legion. Used to love going in there with my Grandad. Love your blogs, Cheers 🍻
Thanks for the video, yes victoria rd east you were on, and i like the fact no trees as that way the pavement doesnt get lifted by the roots, and the drains dont get blocked by leaves etc that comes off them, i do like trees in parks anx forests though, and love the fall my favorite time of year.
And thanks for pointing out the laundrette as wondering where ine was, for when my washing machine packs up !! Its good cleveleys is quieter, than blackpool, you have the choice of a banging night out in blackpool and a quieter one in cleveleys 😊
You missed our Wings Club over the road just before The Jolly Tars.. Great little club ,shame you missed it . Great video though .
I think you'll find the reason there are no trees in Cleveleys is the same reason there are no trees close to the sea in Blackpool. Trees would not survive the salt-laden wind blowing straight up Victoria Road from the seafront. It makes Cleveleys look rather grim unfortunately.
You are correct about the former Royal Bank of Scotland building at Victoria Square.
I wonder how they all keep going being so close together brilliant video really enjoyed it till the next one 😊
Thanks June 🙏
if that launderette could speak i bet it would have some stories to tell
I do love spending a bit of time in Cleveleys. I'm yet to have a night out there though. There is a decent gym there 💯% muscle fitness. Awesome hard-core gym. The owner and staff are really friendly.. I've drove passed that Victoria Hotel many times. Two weeks and I'm coming for 3 days to Blackpool. Can't wait.👌
That was. Midland Bank in the day FYI and anyone else that may be interested & correctomundo, that was a RBS back in the day.
Another good video Stephen, moon very atmospheric. Yes they've missed a treat with the trees it would have looked stunning, Cleveleys own boulevard. That building was an old Bank of Scotland Stephen, door paint gave it away.😊😊😊
Thanks once again Jan 🙏🙏🙏
Hello Stephen
Yet another great video shame that the pub has closed down
We're loosing so many pubs
Which is a great shame
Hopefully it will reopen with a new landlord.
Victoria Sq where the tram tracks and traffic lights are used to be a big roundabout with the trams going through the middle. I think they changed the layout in the 1970s. I used to get the tram every Saturday with mates to Derby Baths for 6 old pennies in the 60s! BTW, the posh bit is Thornton, which isinthe Doomsday Book and we have a better windmill than either Blackpool or Lytham!
I intend to do some videos on Thornton soon. I was meaning to do Marsh Mill in the dark instead of this, but I spotted the chippy & stopped here instead.
Good Stephen. I keep pestering you to go to Thornton. Here's a good opportunity. Yes, Marsh Mill, the remnants of the old railway station, Baines Endowed connected to Baines in Poulton, the Riverside down Stannah where the Archimedes screw is. Housing estates where ICI used to be, the rail track to Fleetwood,
....."Visit Thornton" Stephen.
@@Shaunsfavourites So much to explore up there. I will do some videos there this autumn.
Brill. Thank you Stephen.
Another great video Stephen and somewhere different. Looks really nice and quiet. Have you done a video on Francis Street/Road in Blackpool the one with the painted houses. Looks nice and kept well.
Enjoyed the video Stephen xx
Hi Stephen, Thank you for the vlog, the Jolly Jack Tar, a widespread image of the common British sailor, beginning with the formal establishment of Royal Navy in 1660 and ending in 1817 .
Yes we called in weather spoon Stephen, liked clevs a lot. Nice video.
Love Clevelys for shopping ,never been at night pity about the Victoria looks like a lovely building.
A Jolly Tar is/was a popular nickname for sailor in the Royal Navy. It features in the chorus of the song "Heart of Oak" - ". . . heart of oak are our ships; jolly tars are our men . . ." The music was written in1759 for the London stage by William Boyce; lyrics by David Garrick. Nowadays it's the official march of the Royal Navy. Wetherspoons has a habit of naming its pubs after local celebrities though, so kevinholmes9716 suggestion sounds right to me?
Thanks for the info.
Yayyy i can catch up now Stephen im back from Turkey 🇹🇷, great video 😊 x
I used to go in the Vic with mum,my mate Mike, sis, and brother in law, when they came to visit. A Thursday evening was packed as it was quiz night they even let customers take their dogs in, but since all the manic rules, came in, that all stopped along with no mobile phones, no texting, not even answering your mobile, no internet searching,no music, no reading of newspapers. Mum's no longer here now but when sis and brother in law last went in they said:"It was dead." I'm not in the least bit surprised with all those rules, that's like a dictatorship, people being told what they can and can't do we're not living in China or Russia.
Sounds a bit like the Bispham Hotel on red Bank Road. Anyone who so much as glances at a smartphone in there gets chucked out.
Ridiculous, sis told me that she went in the Bispham, with her husband, in the summer, and the same rules there. Who the hell is implementing these rules don't they realise we're living in the "21st Century" NOT the 19th. We live in a technological age even my great niece who's only 8 has a tablet.@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool
thanks Stephen for another great video 🗼
The building attached to the Tramway used to be a soft play area and was part of the pub.. shutdown ages ago
Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always I love Cleveleys its an amazing place I'm not keen on wetherspoons so don't really go in them Cleveleys is very well looked after have a great evening xx
Thank you very much for this interesting video. I see there are a lot of restaurants and plenty of space wide roads . shame that there are no trees and nothing green there. 👍❤️❤️❤️
Big thanks for the video Stephen. Not been to Cleveleys for many moons, enjoyed the day trip when did go, and enjoyed the tram ride from Blackpool. That closed pub, what a shame, such a. Large looking and wonderful built place. These days makes me wonder how so many can stay open ! Those that are still open must be lucky 🍀 ones. That wide road certainly be complimented by planting. Many trees. Saying that. £ Signs come to mind ……. ! Hummmmmm. Love. KFC. Cannot imagine it banging in Cleveleys but maybe I’m wrong. Thoroughly enjoyed this video Stephen, as always do all of them, and also absolutely. Love your brilliant natural sense of fine humour !!!! Smirking back here. Have a relaxing weekend. Enjoy ! Takecare. Di. Xxx
Thanks Di 🙏
Thanks for this very interesting video stephen pubs closing all the time
Great video thanks Stephen. Staying in Cleveleys next month 🫶🏼
Hi Steve. Great post as always, pal. Glad you didn't film from central Blackpool today - my in-law's are staying there and if my M.O.L's been on the Scotch, you wouldn't have been safe roaming the streets and nor would any bugger else tbh. Last time it was like an out-take from The Exorcist. That said if you had bumped into her (or she'd bumped into you more likely) it would have made good footage for W.O.T.W.S 😂.
Keep up the bangin' vids 👍.
I will have to try and visit cleveleys and fleetwood this time. Instead of spending my time in the arcades and pubs all week in blackpool.
The Shipwreck Brewhouse on the west side is worth a look.
That is a brilliant chippy.
Old white bank on the corner of Rossall Road and Victoria Road West was HSBC.Used it many times in years gone by especially as the one in Blackpool on Birley Street closed first.
...and before that it was Midland Bank . Used to have an accountant's up above, Knowles Nuttall. My first job was there.
Looked really quiet, more cars than people.
Never been there thanks for the insight Stephen..
Great video, Steve. Love it 👌
Thanks Chris 👍
Nice night walk Stephen
Empty building attached to the pub used to be a wacky warehouse been shut for maybe 15 years now at a guess
I’ve only been though on the tram but will have to get off and take a look around next time 👀
Bizarre that no tree thing, you can't move for them here in Northern England.
Jolly tar is usually very busy,nice place.
That 1st pub's haunted, you never knew the risks you were taking. Halloween you'll see 😨
The best chippy in the whole of the fylde coast is Kay’s, everyone in cleveleys knows it. cleveleys is a concrete jungle with nothing to do in the evenings if your under 60, over 60 you’re fine.. the legion, the top club, the little ex, the Rafa, that’s where you will find the residents!
I didn't go past on this video, but I may have on my previous Cleveleys video. I did see the MacMaster went there.
Visited Cleveleys for the first time ever two weeks ago. From North Yorkshire. Highlight was Steak Club night at the ‘Spoons. Didn’t see any druggies or stabbing on the streets. Excellent food, although the pepper sauce was cold. But I didn’t say anything.
It's telling these days when you're happy you managed to get back from a pub without bumping into a crackhead, or getting assaulted.
The block at the back of The Tramway is an abandoned Wacky Warehouse play area; if memory serves me right it operated in the late 90s and early 2000s before it was taken over.
Thanks for the info.
Samuel Smith pubs. Your not allowed mobiles in them and they are very strict if you get one out. The owner sacks the bar people if he catches one being used.
No beer monsters in Cleveleys, even the weatherspoons is subdued 😂😂😂😂
Beer Monsters are hard to come by in Cleveleys.
@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool 😂😂🤣🤣
The guy who had it wouldn't let your mobile in the pub
Sounds a bit like the Bispham Hotel on Red Bank Road. Anyone so much as glances at a mobile phone, they get chucked out.
It is the bispham Hotel my friends daughter and husband had it but she left him because he barred anyone who used there mobile 😊
❤❤
Half a job Stephen what happened to Victoria road west ? There’s a number of ale houses & a wine bar across there
I did that last time! th-cam.com/video/cdQpwqj55xY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jjzMzGvjRlRtV09n
Stephens doing pavement watch now and old buildings he's turned into a urbex Explorer
Cleveleys nightlife? An oxymoron surely? Never seen so many motability scooters in one place, nor so many charity shops. For all of Blackpool's troubles, it is at least lively, if only at the weekends. Not so Cleveleys. A shame because a fair amount of money has been spent on the promenade.
Next to smash it ,is an up and coming bar,it’s being done up.
GOOD EVENING ✨✨. IT'S. ANOTHER. GOOD. VIDEO 📸📷😅😮😢
Aye tats the Pub for ta me TwitherSpoons La and Chicken Muck TFC Next Door and tut church 2 mins down Woad
Where's the beer monsters 😄
Hiding in the washing machines.
There not single town that doesn't have take aways
Aside from nationality, what makes Turkish barbers different from regular barbers?
Quite a lot of people reckon the businesses are fronts for money laundering.
Try one, they are very thorough. I recommend them.
More life in a tramps vest.
