    What have all the clubs and bars on wellington street been over the years?

    Walked down it today and realised I could barely remember any of the old names

    The kebab shop next to chennels used to be my Dad’s bathroom shop when I was a kid
    It was very different on there then. I probably developed a sweet tooth visiting Banks sweet shop opposite

    Haven’t been down there in a long time. Last time I think it was a takeaway of some sort. Basically the units next to chennels (yard). Not sure whats next to it.
