The Lost Pubs of Cardiff

[Mad Al]

Lots of good boozers have gone over the years, recent times have been particularly bad for Cardiff pubs shutting down, going to post some pics of some of these, a fair few were top notch in their day.
Duke of Clarence Canton, closed 2015, big city fans pub this was.

The Canadian in Pearl street, closed in 2015, two of my old Ely pals ran this pub at different times years ago.

Was a fan of the Duke. Shame it went, proper back street boozer.

My grampy had his own spot in that pub - Jack's corner.

The Insole Canton, closed in 2014, good old fellas pub this was

White Hart in James street, Docks, closed by the police in 2014 due to anti social behaviour, I always found it to be a good pub.

Kids these days dont drink as much as we did back then. If they did, these pubs would still be here.

Chill dude, I just always thought it was strange that the pub was called the splotlands even though it was in Roath South

The old pub where Tresillian Way is now. Cant remember the name. Not the Custom House it was nearer Central Station.
