Obituary: Keith Robinson, Landlord


Other specialities included trout, duck, steak and a game soup whose recipe Mr Robinson kept a closely-guarded secret.

Educated at Bridlington Grammar, he also excelled at cricket, a fine amateur batsman who once hit a six into the Bristol Channel.
He is survived by Marie, their sons Richard and Russell, and granddaughter Imogen.
