Lost Pubs of Scarborough
« on: Monday 01 March 10 18:08 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

I'm trying to locate some old photos and any information about lost/closed pubs in Scarborough.
I am particularly interested in the Sandside area of town.

If anyone can help, I'd be extremely grateful!

Many thanks
Darren

Many thanks for your replies, Diddy.

I'm already looking through the info down at the library, I wonder if anyone could suggest any other avenues to explore?

Thanks again,
Darren

Hi Steve,

No pubs in particular, just very interested to see any old photos or read any good articles.

I've recently put together a small pub guide to Scarborough. The pubs included are: The Leeds Arms, The Valley Bar, Cellars, North Riding, Alma, Angel, Scholars, Old Scalby Mills, Cask, Golden Ball, Highlander and The Black Lion. Any extra info about these would be much appreciated!

Many thanks,
Darren

Hi Darren
                I am not a great user of pubs, but you have set yourself a task with Scarborough, you will have to update them daily. If you have included the Northway, that is now a Chinese Restaurant, and the Dolphin at the bottom of Eastborough is closed to name but a few, without counting the ones that seem to change their name on a monthly basis, but, I wish you luck
