LANCASTER ARMS – DESI JUNCTION, 234 GREEN LANE ROAD

North East side of Green Lane Road, cornering on South East side of Lancaster Street.

Built on the site of seven houses: numbers 225-234, Green Lane Road and 131 Lancaster Street.  Changed its name to Desi Junction in 2005 now in mainly Asian area of the city.

The pub was run by owner, Kamaljit Dhillon.  Circa October 2014, due to ongoing problems – fighting, rowdiness and after hours drinking that occurred since he managed the Lancaster Arms, the police objected to the renewal of its licence.  The licence was allowed in August 2015, as long as Kam stood down as manager, other strict conditions were also imposed.
