Have your say.

When I was a teenager, many moons ago, my friends family ran the Barley Mow for quite a few years and I used to stay there all the time. It is very different inside now to how it used to be. There used to be a large room upstairs at the back of the building which had a lot of old stuff in it like pianos. chairs, tables, posters, Forresters Lodge things etc. We were not allowed in there because of all the stuff. We used to open the door and sneak just inside sometimes, the room did have a strange feeling to it.
The first floor of the building had the kitchen, living room, walk in pantry, 1 bedroom and bathroom. Second floor had 4 bedrooms. the kitchen was on the side and the living room overlooked Granby Street. You used to go in the door on the front of the poperty (which is now blocked off) to get to the living quarters. There was a corridor with the snug bar at the end and the main bar was on the right. I don't recall ever seeing anything there but it could be very spooky at night in the dark because of the narrow landings with steps up and down and doors going off. To be honest, being a teenager I don't think I would have noticed anything much, to busy listening to music and talking about boys
It would be interesting to do a vigil here because of my association with the place. My friends father who was the landlord for a number of years is now deceased so maybe he would come through.

not been in this place for years!

any chance you could get this one lee????

My sister-in-laws mum and dad use to go round to pubs all over the country when the real owners were away and they spent 2 weeks at the barley mow!

They said they wouldnt like to live there because it didnt feel very nice there and they heard voices when the pub was closed and no one was around!

Would love to investigate here if we got the chance

use to drink here every friday lunchtime when we worked round the corner. use to sit upstairs and have our chip butties

my maternal gran parents x 6 use to own the pub along with a few others in the area, so that would be make for good ghost hunting

steve ,i and shelmor were in this pub just before we met for the new walk investigation.while we was there someone went upstairs and heard something behind him and legged it downstairs lol lol.

then we got chatting to the landlady and she showed us around upstairs and then the cellars.....really good downstairs ,nooks and crannies everywhere.felt ok though but i bet its full of spooks
