Butlers fell down a few years ago. My shift was on at Uni and we wondered what all the fuss was about, so went to investigate.
It turns out the owners at the time were expanding the cellar and decided to knock a wall down. Because they were chefs and not construction workers, they hadn't noticed it was a retaining wall. The building collapsed from the roof down. Was a major incident. As far as I'm aware there were no major casualties. Butlers has now moved further down Broad Lane and is near the old Sytner building, which itself recently moved to somewhere up near Meadowhall.
I think I went in Josies once in my life. Our nights out used to be a West Street shuffle, ending in either The Limit or Crazy Daisy
