Rising Sun

 

   

 

The Rising Sun was situated on  Apthorpe Street. This pub closed c1956 - my late father was the last individual to drink there. The pub was in the process of closing when he was building the family house about 50 yds away. The publican walked up the road to get bottles of beer from the Six Bells (High Street). He went in a couple of consecutive days before they asked if he 'would be in tomorrow' - to which he said 'yes' and asked why. They explained the pub was closing and he was the only customer and they had to get some beer in - he then said not to bother and he'd just walk 100yds the other way to the 'Bells.
