HOODLUM65 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 You might have spied me going in there in the sixties after cricket matches on the South Inch. Remember it was a favourite haunt of Duncan McNab our wicket keeper. Can recall the Tartan carpet, in fact the lounge was named " The Tartan Lounge" sixties saintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Bar Toilet Attendant Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Chips, excuse my ignorance, but what street was the in? Who on earth would any one change the name to the Scaramouche?? I think there should a listed building type status to protect historical pub names. They keep their name for centuries then some muppet comes along & changes them?? Coltrane and uphallsaint 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
