You're right Leodian, the Yorkshire Evening News was in production from 1905 to 1963. Does anyone remember the Tom Thumb club that was sponsored by the paper.http://www.flickr.com/photos/23885771@N03/3472523025/

The old Warrington and Burton Ales sign has also been revealed on the Albion pub. I hope they retain it with whatever development it is going to be.

Although it's nice to see the old signage again, it's very sad to see this once fine pub in such a sorry condition. I've probably visited this pub more than any other over the years. It was our works lunchtime local (in the days when a pub lunch was the norm!)
