Anyone remember this? It was a grotty little pub just up the lane from the tankcleaning jetty at North Shields. Old biddy aonly served you if she felt like it.
What was it called????

I'll probably be trying to remember it for weeks now! Thanks!

I remember a grotty pub just up the road from Smith's Dock in N Shields. Called 'the Jungle' IIRC. Were all NS pubs grotty?

According to my log it was called Minnies but do not know if this was name of pub or old girl.

This would be Minnie Beck's, The Dock Hotel. I trawled this area in the early 70's photographing the old Albert Edward dock and surrounding areas, but I think the pub had gone by '74 or '75. I have a photo if you'd like it emailed?
