Did it open before Stick and Twist? It certainly can't have been city centre.

There was a Weatherspoons of that name in Wakefield about 20 years ago, but can't recollect one in Leeds.

If i remember correctly it was moon under water and was the old ebor pub on the ebor gardens estate off york road.

Correct,now the Rose and Crown.
This must be the only pub Wetherspoons
packed in.
