This was taken by me in late 1969 from the Classic steps. Lots of interesting things going on, can you spot them? View attachment 62177

Not sure why I referred to it as the Bridge Inn. Of course it was the Lady's Bridge Hotel, later, The Brewer on the Bridge.

There used to be a Bridge Inn opposite the brewery on the corner of Castle Green (below Hen & Chickens) & Bridge Strret, a Tetley pub
Closed in 1972
Last landlord to have it was an Irishman John Kelly

John Kelly who had the Dog & Partridge on Trippet Lane?

March 1967 FA Cup 5th round. Blades players complained that other clubs travel to away matches by coach rather than by train. After that, the club made a decision that the players would go by coach to away matches.

They got “Coach” Cec Coldwell to taken them in his Bedford Dormobile camper van?

Seems odd to see Hamburg Blade giving a 'like' to a photo of bombed Sheffield.

They want to suck us all in, remainers next.

Yorkshire v Australians in 1948

 

[John Street Bar]

John Kelly who had the Dog & Partridge on Trippet Lane?

No at that time that would have been Frank Flynn & Ann Flynn who then moved further up to The Grapes
John Kelly left The Bridge Inn 1972 & took Coach & Horses Attercliffe (now Don Valley Hotel)

Also nicknamed Fagan’s due to Joe Fagan’s dad running it for many years
Joe Fagan as in Fagan’s on Broad Lane, previously named The Barrell - again a Tetley house

Bloody hell at first glance thought that was our Gert' in the buckle shoes. After zooming in two item this girl is wearing tell me it's not, but for that its her, as near as could be double. Spooky!

Those young football supporters look as though they have their scarves tied to their wrists which was the popular thing to do in the late 1960's early 1970's.

I did a similar thing in the Frog and Parrot. Couple of pints of Reckless, felt OK. Then someone suggested a Roger and Out weshed down with another Reckless. I managed to carry on drinking through the night but it’s as pissed as I’ve ever been and I could remember very little of the rest of the night.

Good stuff! Wasn't it brewed in a micro brewery in the cellar? I vaguely remember a glass panel in the floor where you could observe the brewery. Or was I imagining it or pissed?

You could definitely see the brewery.

Was that the game where TC scored a 30 yarder at the Lane end?

Could have done with one of those on Saturday against the present Liverpool team?
