  1. SO GOOD TO HEAR THE 'kING OF THE FRENCH' FISHING CLUB IS STILL GOING STRONG IT BOUGHT BACK MEMORIES TO MY MUM DOREEN. HER PARENTS WERE BILL AND CISSIE WILFORD THEY HAD 2 OTHER GIRLS JOAN AND BETTY AND SON TOMMY. BILL AND TOM WERE KEEN FISHERMEN ALL THIER LIVES SO WOULD ALSO HAVE BEEN MEMBERS DURING THE WAR, MAYBE ARTHUR REMEMBERS THEM?
  2. My grandparents ran The King of the French public house on Woolpack Lane in the Lace Market during the war, its where my parents also lived when I was born in 1945. My mother is 90yrs old and has many memories of living there especially during air raids over Nottingham. It was closed down about 1946 and was demolished later to build the bowling Alley.It was good to see someone asking about it as I can never find any reference to the pub when looking for information on Nottingham, especially old pubic houses.
