The result was DELETE. The strength of argument from Bobet trumps the (small) numbers. No one refuted his argument. Herostratus 03:54, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Non-notable pub. -- RHaworth 22:10, 7 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep. Speaking as a Yank, its age alone (139 years old) makes it notable.  Also, it did receive some media coverage in 2002 for a suicide that happened in its bathroom.  I've added an external link indicating such, but I'm sure a better one could be found.—Carolfrog 07:14, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. Speaking as a Brit, 139 years old does not make a pub notable - see Notable British public houses. -- RHaworth 08:04, 14 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete, I don't see an indication of notability. The age isn't relevant, since that doesn't make it one of the oldest pubs in the country, or otherwise add notability on itself. A suicide happening in the place doesn't confer notability to the establishment; the event might make news, but no one would remember the name of the place after seeing/hearing that news, because it's not relevant. A bridge might become famous as a suicide spot, but in this case, there's no indication that the selection of the place wasn't coincidental. - Bobet 12:50, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
 * keep I agree with Bobet above, but I've also looked at the article history page. This article was created as a stub March 7 at 15:34, tagged non-notable by RHaworth 18 minutes later after 7 edits by the creator, and by 22:09 was brought to AfD by RHaworth. Why not give the creator a week to show notability? AllGloryToTheHypnotoad 20:42, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep pending show of notability per AGTTH -- TedFrank 20:55, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
