The "hole in my neighbourhood" refers to the Temple bar in Manchester. I've been there a few times myself. It used to be an underground toilet.. it's tiny. It got converted into a bar. http://www.thisiswesternmorningnews.co.uk/features/Mercury-men-slip-shadows/article-322752-detail/article.html

i dont think it refers to that exact toilet, um i mean pub, but to really any pub. most pubs are under ground. or at least slightly under ground. that one is just famous for previously being a toilet

also make note that a pub does not serve as good protection against a zombie appocolypse(see "shaun of the dead"[2004] and the documentary "why pubs aren't safe in protecting against the zombie appocolypse" [1989])
