Masham Hotel Linthorpe Road 1987
In the 1970’s ‘Boro worker’s who contracted around the UK, Ireland and abroad would go to this bar to to discuss jobs and wages, and to find out where the newest jobs were from other contract workers. My mate Jim Proudler got a few jobs in there. Jim from the Newport area was so tough that one night blind drunk climbing the steep wooden stairs to go to bed, he staggered and fell heavily down the stairs.
Broke two stairs. No other injuries. That’s tough!
