So many fondly-remembered pubs have shut their doors over the years but are still in the memories of their customers.
These photos - researched by Dave Knibb, the Northampton author of 'Last Orders: A History and Directory of Northampton Pubs' - show some of the town's old stomping grounds. Do you remember stopping for a drink in any of them?

1. Time for a throwback
These long-lost pubs were stomping grounds for a night out in Northampton - until, one-by-one, they all closed. Do you remember stopping for a drink in any of them? | jpimedia Photo: Kevin Barron

2. Victoria Tavern - Kingsthorpe Road (Hollow)
The Tavern is close to where Aldi now stands today - in fact, it was demolished in 1976 to make Kingsthorpe Road wider for traffic. | jpimedia

3. Ram Hotel - Sheep Street
A town centre watering hole that used to reside in Sheep Street. The Tam Hotel may have been around as early as 1675, but was closed and demolished in 1972. | jpimedia

4. Towns Arms - Russell Street
The Town Arms outlasted many of the pubs in the Upper Mounts - but it too was demolished in 1973 to make way for the new Chronicle and Echo headquarters. But that's gone now, too! | jpimedia
