The Eagle and Child brings back many memories for me as I grew up in that area,I had my first pint in the Eagle at the tender age of 16.I sat by the door watching in case my Dad came in as he would of given me a kick up the ar*e.Just after the war there was big battle and the local lads ran the yanks out of Page Moss and back to Burtonwood.In the 50s and 60s if you asked anyone who went to sea for directions they would say go to the Walkers turn right till you come to the Bents then turn left,carry on and you will come to a Threlfalls and its just over the road from there.I drank in all the pubs in Page Moss over the years,the Bow,Farmers Arms,Hillside,Bluebell,Oak Tree.A good pub was the Albert in Paddington.
