Saracens Head still there but now known as The Gallery a "younger" persons pub?Best pub in Loughborough for real ale is The Swan in the Rushes(formally The Charnwood)http://www.loughboroughcamra.org.uk/pub_awards.htm
The only pub doing regular "gigs" is The Dog (The Greyhound)Nottingham Road.
The Brush is still there but not as large as it was.
Lots of locos & HST power units repaired there.
I worked at Brush (Transformers) 1971-95.(Redundant)
