One of the early Landlords there was one of the singers of “The Five Smith Brothers”. People used the Newlands before going into the Fiesta. Probably because the drinks were much dearer. Also it was used as an overflow carpark for the Fiesta. Parking was prohibited in the nearby streets during the opening times of the Club.
The pub was called The Newland”s. Probably named after the road called Newland”s Avenue. It”s been demolished and luxury apartment”s have been built there.
Talking about pubs, can anyone recall the name of the pub on Norton Road which became The Earl Of Stockton, also is the building still a pub or is it derelict or something else. The former name is doing my head in.

Shops come and go – pubs last a bit longer!
