Druid's Arms.
I'll ask my brother-in-law who's working on a keel at Keadby Lock at the moment. He knows all the old boys round there. I'll see him on his own keel tomorrow. My father-in-law also sailed on keels from Keadby in the late 40s and he might know. I sometimes sing an adapted version about the coal being shot at Goole and then I sing 'Wheatsheaf Arms' which was where most of the keelmen and tugmen drank, near one of the hoists.
