Hi Andy, the Talbot Inn still existing and is now a very nice restaurant theme pub (good food), close to National Trust Biddulph Grange Gardens (good day out if you like plants / weeds!) and the owner should be easy enough to contact by 192 or similar. Below should be the multi link map but address should come up easy as Overton Road, Biddulph (the PH by Poolfold) _http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=390000&Y=360000&width= 700&height=400&gride=388867.508353229&gridn=358347.695849038&srec=0&coordsys=g b&db=freegaz&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap =&table=&ovtype=&zm=0&scale=50000&multimap.x=303&multimap.y=249_ (http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=390000&Y=360000&width=700&height=40 0&gride=388867.508353229&gridn=358347.695849038&srec=0&coordsys=gb&db=freegaz& addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap=&table=&ovty pe=&zm=0&scale=50000&multimap.x=303&multimap.y=249) Peter Wayman in Stoke-on-Trent
