A third incarnation?
The old Holly Bush public house on the corner of Keelings Road (once Keelings Lane) and Cardwell Street (formerly Victoria Street) in Northwood which sits just outside Hanley, the city centre of Stoke-on-Trent.
The now disused old pub was once the vicarage, dating back to 1868, for the Church of the Holy Trinity on Lower Mayer Street, which remained in use until the early 1960's when it changed use to a licensed premises. It now appears ser to be converted into flats, as many old pubs are as drinking habits change.
This pub sat opposite to the house that I was born and brought up in, in Cardwell Street, and the mustard coloured gable was used as a set of goals for many a game of football, until we were told off by the owners.
