Coborn Arms, 8 Coborn Road - in circa 1956
This photo of the Coborn Arms was taken after Tommy Cole gave up the Brunswick Arms, probably around 1956 . My father wearing a trilby hat and standing at the side of the doorway to the pub has Alice Cole, and her daughter Brenda standing just in front of him. This was where they did their drinking after closing the Brunswick Arms.
