Hi,I've been researching old newspaper articles on Leeds at www.gazettes-line.co.uk (the London version), it's been really helpful and FREE! It does not show general news but things like bankruptcies, insolvencies and partnerships. I tried a few of the pub names in your forum and loads came up. To save too much hair loss refine any search with the full pub name and also the arrange by date function is handy if your looking for a particular time span.Hope this helps someone.
