Can anyone remember a city center pub with a downstairs music hall...or is my memory  fading its an age thing.

I have looked at pics of the Malt Cross and it isn't what i remember. There was a long bar and behind the bar was a staircase that went down to the music hall definitely not on the same scale. As the queen said 'recollections may vary'. I appreciate you checking for me.

There was 'The Old Vic' on Fletcher gate many years ago next to the Cross Keys pub. Old Vic had a few comedy and musical acts in its day. 

The Old Vic seems to fit the bill plus mention of Cross Keys......thank you

Willow's mention of the Old Vic and Cross Keys seems to fit the bill and time scale was 50+ years ago.

Nice to see you’re posting again, Gem x.  Are you still living up north?

Thank you Margie I have logged in many times but never felt i had much to say.  I am still living in the North East but now in a very small village called Mugglswick, i was left the property as the only relative of my dad's brother whom i had never met. Google it and you will see what the back of beyond looks like....but the greyhounds and i love it.

@Gem Looked it up and I see what you mean.  The population seems to be getting less as the years go by!  But, as you say, it suits you and the dogs so that’s good.  Was it you who makes dolls’ house furniture or am I getting confused….
