Samantha Maher	1970s/1980s	Lived in the pub when height of discos where on.was called buckskin till na.e changed to old barn and potters. Was done up into disco pub.
Steve Finn	1973/1990	I loved the Buckskin. Moving from one bar to the other. I remember it opening around 1973. There were a few fights in the pub and car park but that seemed normal in those days for 16 to 17 year olds. No knives though. Disco on a Monday night live band on a Thursday. Chaos I think they were called. Friday and Saturday was a meeting point before going of to Carnival Hall on a Friday and Top Rank Reading on a Saturday. Than a Disco on a Sunday.
