Bridge Street, The Bear And Billet Inn 1888

My grandfather  Frederick Burghall and his wife used to have a drink in this pub once a week. They lived in nearby Handbridge. Their sons Frederick and Ernie used to have a pint also in the 70s and 80s.
Whilst doing my mother's family tree we visited the pub to see what it looked like. We had a good look around and surprised the chef by visiting the top floor. I loved the atmosphere. Hadn't really changed much I suppose even though it had been modernised.
