Hmm. Not sure about the brand new building - it looks like a Disney replica of what was there before. A sign says it'll reopen in June.

Here's what the Timothy Taylor website says what's in store for the Rodney. This description recently made it into Private Eye's 'Pseuds Corner'. I'm not joking.

"The Lord Rodney is currently being redeveloped scratch with a £1 million budget and is situated in an area of Keighley, which will be the subject of investment, by Bradford Council.
The concept will be chameleon urban chic. Daytime trade will be focused on relaxed grazing in our well designed and comfortable bar, in the evening we raise the tempo to become the place to meet in Keighley and a feeder bar for what will be our newly refurbished nightclub, just 100 metres away."

"chameleon urban chic". "Feeder bar". Jesus wept. This is a brewery that didn't even have a fax machine until about 1992.

Oh dear. It's been demolished. Apparently, it shall rise again. Looks like it'll be a good while, though.

Opening spring 2008, apparently.

Just been bought by the Taylor brewery. Rejoice!

Closed, amazingly. It was dreadful, but always busy. Hopefully this historic pub will reopen and improve.

Terrifying.

One of Keighley's oldest pubs, and undoubtedly the roughest.
