In the mid sixties I lived in Crown Street (roughly where Exmouth Gardens is now).I think there was a pub at each end of the street The Raven at one end but I can't remember the pub at the other end . I think it may have been called The Crown but I'm not too sure.Really enjoyed living down there-I was only a nipper but had a ball with me and my mates declaring 'war' on the kids from Fore Street and watching the fights outside the pubs on Saturday nights . We used to go to the joke shop around the corner and up to the chippy, either Johnny's or Quilt's (not sure about the name of the second one - I think it was near the top of Bentinck Street).

I'm afraid the Raven public house was in Exmouth Street not far from Bentinck Street. I once lived opposite in 25 Exmouth Street in the 50s.
