It is still operating. It isn't controlled by the breweries. It is in Derbyshire. I understood the background about the coal mines and Thatcher and strikes ~ and how it tore communities and families apart.

When do doubt they tear it down they will be tearing out the every heart of this former coal mining village. A "freehouse" is a pub that isn't controlled by a brewery.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-48895778252150750002014-03-22T20:05:47.275+00:002014-03-22T20:05:47.275+00:00Thank you for your positive response.

To break the will of honest men. Ever met an honest policeperson or politician? Almost a contradiction in terms. Not quite an oxymoron but damn near an oxymorron.
