Local record

History of this pub

Broomside Park’s surviving local record includes more than menus and opening hours. In 2021, ChronicleLive reported that the restaurant’s staff helped a Durham couple hold a wedding reception at short notice. The account preserves a small but telling part of the pub’s life: it was a place used for family occasions as well as ordinary meals. That report does not provide a complete architectural history or an opening date, so this archive does not add either. It does, however, document one event tied directly to this building and the people who worked there before the final Beefeater closure.
