Junction Inn

Picture source: Ian Chapman


The Junction Inn was situated at 150 Ashton Road. Converted from a private house in 1874 by my great grandfather, Rolla Oldham, who brewed and sold his own beer. I still have his diaries and notebooks from the 1870s complete with neat drawings of the bar and seating details and his bills of materials. He kept a portrait of Queen Victoria behind the bar. On the news of the Battle of Rorke’s Drift he draped the entire bar in black as a mark of respect. Now returned to a private residence, following closure c2004.

Wayne Cook 1980 I used to frequent this pub in the 80’s. It used to have the gents toilets outside at the rear. Funny in the winter trying to have a wee in the snow.
