This was my grandad’s (Jimmy Leeming) old haunt, I too remember sitting outside waiting for him,but remember it was a great way of getting a few pence off most of the merry drinkers on their way out!!!!!!
I remember going to our Xmas night out here in the late 50s where we had a room booked upstairs when I worked in R & D at Head Wrightson in Thornaby .At the end of the night after some fun with the soda syphons we were asked not to come again !!!

Yep,did a lot of boozing in there in the 70s and early 80s. Ended up in there on my batchelor night in 78 when suddenly I felt a draft around the back,then I realised I was stood there with my trousers round my ankles—didn’t realise I had drank as much as that ! Things like this seemed to happen in a lot of the old pubs in those days and if you wanted grub it was either a packet of crisps or a pickled egg or if you were really lucky someone would come in selling bags of winkles with a free pin!–that would keep you going till suppertime. Pubs were pubs then and not fashionable eating places. But that’s progress for you I suppose.
I remember sitting on the curb outside the green tree because my mam had gone in there looking for my uncle Ernie. he would bring my brother and me out a glass of lemonade and a packet of crisps. Long time ago that was.
I used to drink in the Greentree in the 70s, when it had two rooms & a mother & daughter ran it
