The Keystone was originally meant to be called "The Dollies" but owners Tetley decided to name this octagonal-shaped lock-up pub on Market Way on the Precinct. Over two floors it had roaring twenties décor downstairs with keystone cops black and white films on screens. Up the spiral staircase took you to a disco area. By 1984 the decoration had changed to 1940s style. Burtonwood took the Keystone in 1992 but a couple of years later it was closed, and then demolished by 1998 [1].
