Leeds Lost Pubs - Part 2

[Loiner in Cyprus]

[quotenick="Steve266"]Speaking of lost pubs who remembers the Anchor in hunslet near to the Morrisons supermarketTetley's house I remember the Anchor from the early 1960s. On a Sunday morning Middleton Broom Colliery had first aid training there; the courses finished at 1200 noon just as the bar openned!! I must confess to having had a couple or few after attending the training. If I remember correctly Jeff Stephenson who played hooker for Leeds was the landlord.

Jeff Stephenson played scrum half for Leeds, York and Hunlset. He died in 2007. I thought he played hooker. The memory must be fading. It's a good job I'm not a gambling man.

Does anyone remember The Moonraker pub from the early 70's? Inside it was all done out as a moon scape. I was only a young teenager when my dad managed it but I remember thinking how 'cool' it was inside lol. Unfortunately we were not there long as it was too far for me to travel to Abbey Grange school
