The Mildmay Tavern was situated at 130 Balls Pond Road.
 
I used to be a barmaid in the this pub in the 1980s when it used to be run by Jn and John Gill. It used to be a mod pub and have bands there regularly; Kathy Burke from TV's Kevin and Perry use to drink with me in there and also Adam French who use to to be in Just Good Friends. The group The Jam  turned up in there on one of the mod nights before they were really famous. It was well known for the mods and a regular haunt for them and there were always scraps outs inside with skinheads. I can tell you a few stories about that pub and I class it as part of my life and loved the days when it was a mod pub and everybody looked out for each other.
