Steve Mansfield Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 We've just learned that the pub company is selling The York for residential use. Another pub done gone! No, don't say the York is going - far too much of my student grant and time was spent in there ... but the Red Deer also has a strong and fine music tradition (have they put a roof on the gents' loos yet?)

No obligation to please the crowds or justify any payment as we play for nowt. Ooh ... Is that the Sharon, Formerly of the Meadow Street and others, who regularly sings "Zombie" by the Cranberries? I was wondering where she'd got to... Also, the York's Monday night anything goes session is probably moving to the Red House - Fortnightly.

michael sam wild Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 That's full circle. John Keane and the lads used to play in the Red House when we kept it in the early 00s. Nice to see it's still a live music pub. There's been live music there since the 1830s when it was on the outskirts of town. Then it became the centre of Sheffield's Irish Community in 'The Crofts' until the 70s when demolition cleared the housing. It got tough in the economic decline in Sheffield 80s onwards but now it's been developed for flats and lofts. Hope it survives as a venue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
