How many are still open ? If closed, when did they close; any additional known keepers ? (especially "modern" ones.

Brilliant idea Stuart ! My database has a very heavy bias to Pre-WWII; any help beyond that much appreciated.

I thought that the 'Potato Crisp Factory' I found on map ???

Was more important!

And someone has told me the Company/Brand Name,

after all "You can't have beer without crisps" 'can you, and 'Sheffields own crisps' come to that.

I didn't even look at the map - when I hit 500 posts Admin promised me a "Castle Crisps Club" badge, I had one in the 60's - saved the tokens - no idea where they were from....

Canny Bag O' Tudor ???? Jeez, I've been in the North East too long - John Tudor - 70's goalkeeper ...

9 out of 10 for Map useage there BTW, any chance of some destructions for people should they wish to download, open, edit a map/repost ? I hear we may not have the youngest and most "hip" of target audiences, interested yes, young, not ! The older the member, the more possibility of great memories/input.

Lots of freeware out there that can be used to crop and save bits of maps/photos,

'Irfanview' will do it but a plug-in (add-on) has to be downloaded.

I will have a look at what's available and sort some distructions out,

after I've eaten my Wreys crisps, spelling of 'wrays' may be incorrect, by the way

This never got answered from post one in this topic, so I originally spotted 22 pubs, there's probably more, lets have a definitive list and they can be marked up, then we can move onto the next map.

I think UKL and me should be excluded from this one; I'll volunteer as a Judge (if required) - can't volunteer on UKL's behalf.
