johnm 16 Posted June 8 I don't know its history but had a pint in there many times mostly after being in Concord Park for various activities. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lysandernovo 31 Posted June 8 It was known ,locally, as "Affertey's" after an earlier landlord. The pub had a large beer garden...where I was taken as a child and, latterly, took my children and a seperate single storey building which could be hired for "occasions". A great pub.... a regular "drinking hole" of mine... when the landlord ( an ex fireman) had a brass, highly polished firemans helmet securely fastened at the end of the bar ...although I can't remember drinking Hammonds there! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lysandernovo 31 Posted June 14 As an aside "forkmaking" was an old Shiregreen trade and there were remains of old workshops near the corner of Hadfield House and Bellhouse Road certainly into the early 1980s when I left the area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
