Is the Royal Oak pub still there? Please excuse the memory if I have it wrong, but there was a motorcycle club started there in the mid 60's called The Acorns? Some 50yrs ago!! Aaaaagggh. Hope you enjoy the forum as much as me. Pete |

The Royal Oak was still a decent village boozer about ten years back: did a lot of dog training in that neck of the woods around then. Eug |

It is still there. Been extended a bit over the last few years. A good pub with beer garden and sells good food at reasonable prices. (I have no financial links with the place - honest) |

Knowns as Gnosal, Knighton and Adbaston, used to watch them as a kid around 76. Last time raced there was in 1981 got piccies, track still shows up on google maps if you know where to look. |
