Broadhill Bar no more…
The Dons bought this, a former golf clubhouse, in the early 70s, but did **** all with it. It became the Lynx Carvery about a decade later, serving sumptuous, full-fat cholestorol vegan nightmare lunches. Bands on upstairs. I forgot (The Drinking Years) who I saw there, apart from the splendid Boothill Foot Tappers.
Then it became a fine down-at-heel, sawdust-and-spit pre-match watering hole as The Broadhill Bar, which like Boston’s Cheers, or 1Up Records, everybody knew your name, with a pretty good chipper - AYE, A ****IN CHIPPER - in its northern wall.
It was also the venue for the late Ernie Winchester-organised H&R beer mini-festival in November 2004. I still have the commemorative rosette in my gig case.
Rest In Rubble.
