The Nag's Head, on Bow Street opposite the Market Hall, dates back to 1835. It became "Sloans" in 1985 and more recently became the "Chute Bar". The front window has been replaced with folding doors.

ReplyDeleteI was born from this old coaching style pub. My Grandma was the Landlady. My earliest memories are of Dray Horses, a big open range fire with a permanent cauldron of soup, Multiple Dogs and Cats, and my Dad on the Piano accompanying the stars from the Ashton Hyppadrome.
