Malcolm Douglas, I remember the "Bell Hagg" from sixteen or seventeen years ago; I may be wrong but I think that Bell Hagg is an area of rough, boggy moorland not far from that bit of Sheffield.

Sheffield still does have a "Frog and Parrot" which serves its own-brewed rocket fuel (e.g "Conqueror, o.g. 1066; "Old Croak" etc); I recall that the place was (is ?) notorious for the piles of comatose students outside at closing time, which caused obstruction to traffic on the highway.

Near me (in Glossop, at the other end of the Snake Pass) is the "Lantern Pike" in Little Hayfield (Lantern Pike is a nearby hill). The "Moon and Sixpence", which once featured folk evenings, can be ignored; it is a made-up name, dating from only ten years ago, it used to be the "Fleece".

Odd places I have drunk in; the "Printer's Devil" on New Fetter Lane in London (apparently a printer's devil was some sort of publisher's gopher in days gone by); the "Halfway House" on Cathedral Road in Cardiff (I never did find out, halfway to where ?); the "Cat and Fiddle", on the road of that name between Buxton and Macclesfield, notorious for kamikaze motorcyclists; the pub of that name has been there for centuries, where on earth did the name come from ?

Glossop boasts a "Grapes" inn; there is nothing apparently sinister about that, but York has a Grape Lane, which was a hastily-renamed "Grope Lane"; it was a mediaeval red-light district.

An oddity; the "Snake Pass Inn", on the Snake pass, mentioned above, was once just the "Snake Inn", named for the coat of arms of the Cavendish family; and the road (the modern A57) took its name from the inn, rather than vice versa.
