It was only the very latter portn of the Lockyer's existence the UK fally ma some steps to crimalise homosexualy wh the Sexual Offenc act 1967. ” Another dividual scrib his first vis to the now disappeared venue: "Y I sort of plucked up urage to go there, I’d heard about you know… I’d heard there was a place there where gay people went. " However, while the Lockyer Tavern beme a well known queer lotn, was not jt a meetg spot for gay men.

While beg gay was crimalised the UK unr The Sexual Offenc Act 1967, many gay men feared beg judged or challenged their workplace or social group, if others knew their sexualy.

So plac like The Ln's Den and gay pubs such as The Lockyer Tavern beme safe-spac for men to meet this time, wh some men bumpg to iends or lleagu unexpectedly, if one didn't know the other was gay, Dr Butler says. Cisg is one of those unfortable elements of gay life and gay culture, if you tell people somethg is shameful and secretive, people have to rpond to that. Intertgly, The Ln's Den on Plymouth Hoe is still listed on some gay workg s.

On Menspac, The Ln's Den is listed as beg "among the most equented lotn for gay married upl tryg to fd a tranquil place to reach new dividuals, " while another gay adult se ranks the lotn 4* - but warns prospective visors to watch out for police officers and staff om nearby f.
