Considering that the last place visited by this log was Paris, Doncaster is up against strong competition — and comes nowhere. The Frenchgate centre in the evening is like visiting a world where all human life has evaporated — and it hasn’t gone to the pubs. White Swan closed, Great Northern closed, The Plough a little gem with some nice Vermuyden ale. The Leopard somewhat deserted though beer acceptable, the Corner Pin had an eccentric clientele and, considering it had got the Doncaster CAMRA award for a town pub recently, didn’t seem to have kept the beer in top form.
Streets of Doncaster deserted — all rather sinister.
