Most Whitby regulars will know that The Plough was probably the most used pub in Whitby during Folk Week. Thyere was singing and music in every room and down the garden. Maureen and I used to run the official Singaround upstairs, but it is a Sam Smiths pup and the Brewers decided some years ago not to allow music , television or any other kind of enertainment in any of there esatablishments. If you go there now during Folk Week it's like a Ghost Pup it even closes during the afternoon. M and I vacated to The Rifle Club were we have been made very welcome as will anyone else who likes to come.
