🔎 Found in the cellars!

The Woodpecker Club, opened in 1970s, served as a social club for employees of Bulmer's Cider, until it closed permanently in the 2000s. The remaining subterranean property extends from the Museum's champagne cider cellars which are open to the visitors. This sign was uncovered in the bar area where it had been hung more than 20 years ago, a relic of Hereford's social history. The smoking ban in pubs and bars came into effect in 2007 in England, up until this point smoking was permitted, well, so long as you weren't dancing! 🕺
