Tynesideโs print traditions are deep-seated - indeed, in 18th century England only London, Oxford and Cambridge published more books than Newcastle - and this pub in Gosforth is another key site in that illustrious history.
May 2015. Afternoon of son in laws stag do at Newcastle Cluny. He was setting up for a gig that night, asked if we were going. Ashamed to say somebody in the company laughed. He kept his dignity and we then had a long chat about punk influences . Lovely man.
