I was going to have a guess at The Star, but it could well be The Grapes with there being no side window, you can see the oche line for the dart board so it's a tap room, the ale would have been cheaper in there too, all the same price now no matter which room you are in. Plenty of pubs along Wallgate too in the 1960's, so they would have had a good night out pub crawling.

That's my older brother Keith Baybutt second from left, looks abit different today. How many young men go out today wearing suits and ties?. No pubs left like those now.
