BLACKSMITHS ARMS

On the old riverside
By Richard Beckett

The Blacksmiths Arms was to be found on the old riverside close to Denton Island Bridge. Note the "figurehead" on the top of the upturned Boat in the second photo. This boat was the Gents Toilet situated on the riverbank.

It closed as a pub about 1934 and then became a "mens boarding house".  It was demolished for the ring road.
