CHEQUERS - NETHERGATE - 1981

Chequers position in the Nethergate was reflected by those who used to drink there - half were townies and half were students.
It opened around 1980 and was a cheery, civilised place to mingle - even on the nights it was crammed.
As well as a jukebox up on the wall, it had "Commedia dell'Arte" themed paintings hanging up around the pub - Pulcinella and co, as above.
Its interior was done in typical 80's ever popular green, hence this caption colour!
