Re: Audenshaw News - The Boundary...
No not where Call a Car is, which was the Broom House (dodgy as fuck 10 years ago, card games with £1000's going on the table and bouncers on the door to this games room). You're right in saying it was once a gay pub for a short time before it shut as we was all pondering why a rainbow flag was flying above it.
The taxi rank I meant is where Natwest is, and it is called Shah's I think.
I also heard that the Saxon St car park was going to be a KFC and a Subways, but that looks false now if KFC have applied for a drive through on that land near Denton Rock posted earlier.
Got a story about the old Broom House actually. Knocked on the side door on a Friday for a lock-in (me and a couple of mates were 16 at the time). Went in the pool room and this meat head in the corner goes 'How much you putting on this game?', so my mate puts a pound on the table. This bloke loses it and throws a wad of cash down on the table and shouts "YOU DON'T FUCKING COME IN HERE WITH LESS THAN A GRAND ON A FRIDAY NIGHT!!!!". Then he proceeds to whisper in my ear..."If you don't lose to your mate I'll fucking fill your face in with this pool cue'.
So naturally...I put the cue down and went on my merry way. Bought a kebab, and off back home. Happy times :-)

It's callrd the Broom house. Been know as a bit of a shit hole since i was a kid. Was ran by two gay lads (I think) last, then shut down about 8 months ago.
You could be right about it becoming a food related venture, as they have built an extension on the back, which is the usualy sign.
Surely the market (especially in Denton) is saturated with fast food/ curry houses?
