I was interested in reading about the Millar of Mansfield. I lived there
from 1946 and left in 1951; when my Dad, John David Gibson, was the
licensee, but he was sacked due to ill health, by Mr Downing who still owned
the pub. Dad was also a licensee at a previous pub, the
Engineer's Arms. *+
I lived there with my three brothers and sister, who were all older than me.
Sadly, only one brother, now in his late eighties, is still alive. I can
still remember the layout of the old building. The big room on the fist
floor was used for functions and the socializing of the Guys Hospital Rugby
Club. *+
