Now a redundant old relic, this pub pulled its last pint in 2004 before the owners disappeared. Since then there have been many plans to 'develop' the building, but none coming to fruition. The Shoe still stands right at the end of the high street in front of Rampart Street and the entrance to the Garrison. I was told by a nearby shop-keeper that the last owners gutted the place when they left. It has remained empty ever since which seems a shame as some good times were had in here.
