India Pale Ales, Strong & Mild Ales,
Stout & Porter

Identified by Don Parry as at
Park Street, Thame, Oxon

James Howell
was licensee at this probable
Youngs, Crawshay & Youngs house.....

A fine investigation by Bunny Linford-Hazell
shows James Howell was running a beerhouse at 
North Common, Hepworth, Suffolk in 1881.
Age 58 in 1901 he was an Innkeeper at Hepworth
and was still there in 1912.

This identifies the BLACK HORSE, Hepwoth.

Jonathan Harrison ran the CYCLISTS ARMS.

Possibly at FRECKLETON - LANCASHIRE
Can you confirm??

Mark Holton and Stewart Marsh confirm that this is Freckleton.
The house stood at Lytham Road and was previously the TEWITT ARMS.
The house and neighbouring school were destroyed in 1944
when a B29 Liberator crashed, attempting to land at Warton.
38 children were among the fatalities.



The GRIFFIN
W J Stevenson is licensee.

Another one to Bunny Linford-Hazell
Ref : WHITE HART
The WHITE HART had licensee
Charles Hales in occupation 
when this photograph was taken in the early 1900's.

After much investigation it has been
confirmed to be at
EDITH WESTON
Stamford
LINCOLNSHIRE

Wright's directory of 1899 confirms that Mr Hales
was in occupation then.

Nice one Bunny!



A BLACK PRINCE

Identified by Peter Williams

Jesse HART was licensee here.

CROWN & ANCHOR

Still trading on HOLY ISLAND it seems....

Another find by Bunny, March 2007



The distinctive STAR INN
should prove easy ?

Tracked down by Phil Child
and Bunny Linford-Hazell.


The house is still trading at Crowlas, near Penzance, Cornwall,
on the A30




Strong evidence that this is the Queens Head at Tharston.
The house was rebuilt in the 1930's or so.
John Brandon, who now lives in Bristol,
lived in the new house until 1958.

Confirmed August 2007 by Seth Reeder who talked with
Clarence Potter, 80 years old
and Cyril Brooks who is 92 years old.
Both have memories of the original house.


They suggest it could be landlady Mrs Fuller standing in the doorway....

The CHEQUERS INN
Probably Youngs, Crawshay & Youngs house.
Thought to be in the Diss area.


Nigel Smith advises 18/10/2007 :-
it is the former Chequers (Free House) pub located at Kettleborough (near Framlingham) which was subsequently burnt down and rebuilt in 1912/3
