Great shame 😔😔😔
Had my 1st pint in there 40 years ago (26p I think)
My local for all them years.
Had some great nights with the lads and legendary coach trips to away games 🍻🍻😂😂


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

some pubs manage to prosper...some go to the wall......its a national phenomena that traditional pubs are closing every week, but plenty of new pubs/ bars are opening too....not sure about the Imp as only ever used it a few times a year but i can say when i did use it it always disappointed, plastic glasses, slow service, run down loo's and lack of beer choice.... hardly a recipe for success.

As a non-smoker, I was pretty pleased when the smoking ban came in. Made a big difference being able to go out without being practically asphyxiated and then get home without stinking terribly.

I wouldn't have minded specific smoking rooms at all but the issue which obviously led to the ban in the first place was the passive smoking which bar staff were forced to endure. Too complex to legislate for special smoking rooms in pubs, I'd have thought.

As for the Imp itself, I reckon I've had about 2 (crap) pints there over the years. Obviously not a going concern it's only right that the building should have a reasonable purpose instead of sitting derelict. Would be even better if the apartments were social housing!
