We’ve taken a look back through the archive to show just 22 of North Kirklees’ old beloved lost pubs that have sadly been shut for good - with some more recent than others.
So take a walk down memory lane and step back inside these lost pubs – and raise a glass to them. We know there are many more.
Do you remember any of them? Which ones would you bring back if you could?
