Drank in there in the late 70's, Lennie and Alice Cairns had it, all the boxers met there before going to Pontins by Southport for their weekend piss up.
The McAteers, foggy and many more from the Birkenhead boxing club all ex fighters, Lennie had 2 sons one worked behind the bar the other used to go round town selling fish.
Lennie died in the 80's and when the Valley closed i had moved to Rock Ferry.
