spent many a happy time up the King Teddy (as we called it), you walked up
a slope to it from the station. We
used to go in the door on the left of the building, the main door at the
front lead into a posh lounge.
Location confirmed 26/07/07 by Keith Mann.
His great grandfather, George Rose, was landlord from 1912 to 1917.
Mr Rose had retired from the Metropolitan Police at the age of 52.
