Dave
Knowles remembers ... “the Retreat was a cider house, so no spirits, but you could
buy draught port or sherry. The old boys would have a pint of rough and then top
it up with a large port!! The Gents consisted of a long black wall (so beloved by
Jethro in one of his jokes). Most of the old boys suffered the shakes until they
had at least two pints of the "red biddy" as it was known”. Near the top of Blackboy
Hill the Retreat is now a restaurant named the Clifton Tandoori, for a glimpse see
the Black Boy Inn.
On the 21st December 1888 the Retreat was taken on a 14 year lease
at a rent of £80 per annum by James Lockley, brewer of Lewin’s Mead. The lease was
one of 22 sold by James Lockley to the Bristol United Breweries Limited on the 25th
March 1892 for the total sum of £11,000.
