Also, a long time ago, there was a Traveller's Rest near the end of Bankhouse Lane, or so I'm told. Is it The Fleece or The Regent that closed, also near the end of Bankhouse Lane, but on the opposite side? Can't remember which. Incidentally, anyone remember the Asda that was near there? One of the first to be built, I believe, but now flattened for housing.Was the Weasle the Pig and Whistle?

Now i know you ment past it for years Yo u see i have found why pub threads get the most hits .Directions thats the answer eg where is the asda go up the road past the Lord Cardigan to the Regent go past the Regent to the F leece turn right after about twenty five yards So simple dont know why i did not spot this before.
