NZ2368 : The Trap
taken 18 years ago, near to Gosforth, Newcastle Upon Tyne, England

The Trap
This public house used to be called the Coxlodge, but local residents always called it the trap and so the brewery eventually gave in to local tradition and renamed it.
The name comes from the fact that the pitmen and quarry men who lived locally, (before it became so built up) used to race whippets around here and so the pub was called the trap.
