The Bell and Pump was formed early in 1973 by Derek Grinell, and had a great resident band in Mad Jocks and Englishmen, who were one of the main driving forces behind the club. Terry McCann, who won New Faces TV programme in the 1970's, was also a resident at the club. The club finally closed its doors in 1995.
