In the late 1960s the Railway had a landlord who was too found of the sauce and who, after an epic drinking session, appeared behind the lounge bar wearing only his vest and underpants and suffering from a severe case of intestinal hurry. His wife berated him and told him to return upstairs to which he responded by removing his underpants and flinging them across the lounge where they attached themselves to the light fitting. As he, his wife, the bar staff and the cleaner all refused to remove them, the undies became an unusual conversation piece until a smartly dressed gentleman from Higsons Brewery appeared and much to the amusement of the clientele, stood on a stool and removed the offending garment with a pair of tongs. He then placed them into a plastic bag and left.

Name changed to The James Atherton and now changed again (possibly temporary) to The Three Bellends
