The Alliance was situated at 260 Sumner Road. This pub has now been converted into flats.

My Aunt Edie and Uncle Charlie Cole ran the pub in the 1960s, I remember going there with the family for parties in the upstairs living room which seemed huge at the time it stretched right across the top floor , I must have been 8-12ish. Their Sons Terry and Brian, my Cousins, also lived there at the time. I believe they left there in about 1968 to run an Off Licence and then retired to Pitsea in Essex around 1970.
