Here's another cracker...The Market Tavern... Another Uncle of mine was the landlord of this establishment along with his 5th (may have been 6th wife) (better record than Hector )... truly deserved it's nickname of the "Madhouse"
Demolished in 1995 for a bloody car park...

Used to frequent the Whip on crawls around Leeds before and after the match..
I remember singing and dancing on the seating in there after we'd won the league in 92.. Great days.
