CENTRAL BATHS
The home of Turd Stalking and Liferaft drills.
THE FROG & FRIGATE
Many a night scrumming with rugby clubs on the sawdust floor! The Frog is still there on Canute Street.
THE ANGEL
Many nights spent by most, if not all, in here! The Angel is still there near East Park Terrace!
THE WHITE SWAN
Near Townhill Park House and scene of the Great Battle of Itchen! Again the Swan is still going as a pub. Not bad that most of our watering holes still remain as pubs when so many across the UK have gone.
WOOLSTON & ITCHEN BRIDGE
If I recall Boatwork was run from a shed and slipway on the far bank near the bridge?
THE BARGATE
A famous landmark in town and a public convenience to one unfortunate member ( no names!).
ABOVE BAR IN THE SEVENTIES
Still have your flares anyone?
COBDEN BRIDGE
If we had a penny for everytime we crossed this one.....
