Further, the family we bought our house from were Johnsons.  Is the original poster Tony Johnson related?

Stumbled upon this fantastic picture by chance. I live on Port Road, just along from the Post Office in question.  The doors to the pub cellar are still there in the pavement.  The quarry (now a housing estate called Duston Wildes) was still  there, but abandoned, when we moved here in 1978.  The local kids called it the old treaclemine.  I have started keeping bees, and have named my honey 'Old Treaclemine' to preserve the legend! There is still a family of Wrights living on Port Road.  Any connection I wonder? Graham
