There also use to be a pool place beside it that was ran by Bob Girdwood Clint Girdwood dad. There also use to be a car club across the road between 8 Main Street and the Vets (now)

-This was The George and Dragon as well . My aunt Eleanor Traynor lived across from it and as there were no lights to cross...one of the young waitresses would walk her across ...She was in her late eighties.They also called her on extremely hot summer days and asked if she would like to come over and enjoy the air conditioning.Kindness never forgotten.
