    Default Hayling Billy

    Hayling Billy is now Infinity Bar. Also, the street number should be 139 Elm Grove (not 117). Finally, since the Facebook link is dead, that may as well be deleted.

    To give a bit of background, however.......

    The Hayling Billy pub at 117 Elm Grove was demolished around 8 years ago and replaced by housing. The name was almost immediately reused for a micropub-style shop conversion bar. Recently, however, the name has changed to Infinity Bar (photographs to follow). Since the sole photograph is of the current incarnation, and no trace exists of the original pub, there seems no value in closing it and creating essentially a duplicate when we can just change the name and address.

    Hayling Billy was the colloquial name applied to the old branch line onto the island from Havant Station.
