FISHERMEN'S CLUB - 1999 / 2009

West Quay

By Albert Knight and Laurie Stonehouse

The first photograph was taken about two years before the demise of this building, it was removed to make way for phase 1 of the West Quay redevelopment. The next picture is roughly the same location in 2009.

I used to go to the old Fishermen's Club with my step dad, who was the coxwain of Newhaven Lifeboat many years ago when it launched down the slipway.

The first photo must have been taken early in the morning. 'Paddy' Boyle's car isn't parked outside...

One of the more famous people to visit the club was Ozzy Osborne just after he bit off the head of a bat on stage. I remember having a pint with him.

Ozzy (Osbourne) came to the club with my dad's friend Phil Carlo, my dad and Phil went back years. Ozzy wasn't the only famous person to come to the club, Phil also brought Jimmy Page! mum and dad have photo's of Ozzy at the club at their house.

So with Ozzy (Osbourne's) previous association to the town, might he be approached to open this year's Lifeboat Fete!!? You never know.
