Thread Name: folk club rooms i have dwelt in
Subject: RE: folk club rooms i have dwelt in
The railway station one was the buffet bar at Stalybridge station, Dick. I dunno if the folk club is still going but the bar is thriving. The one at the Star in Salford has gone but the room was indeed a thoroughfare to the gents! The pub was faced with closure some time back but was bought by a community group and is still going. Swinton Folk Club, in the back room of the White Lion, while not as eccentric as some, does house a collection of pictures of the Swinton Lions Rugby League team. This is because it was the birthplace of said team.
