SITEDESC
Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition. No. 2 Tyne Street in the 1871 census. There was a terrace of houses with the Golden Lion and the Lamb Inn at either end. A small triangular public house on the corner of Tyne Street and City Road. Had a bar and sitting room and clubroom upstairs. It was improved by J Duncan & Co to designs by Benjamin Simpson in 1891. Four bars were created using screens. The bar counter filled the centre of the ground floor. For 1891 this was an unusual design. More alterations were made in 1912, 1937 and 1950. The two main bars became one. In 1989 the former pub was being used as a windsurfing shop. The Simpson interior had been demolished. Now gone.
