LRLH has discovered that a Thomas Firby is listed 1901
as licensee at premises in Accomb, West Yorkshire.
In 1895 Thomas Firby was at the Marcia Hotel, Accomb.
Mrs Georgina Firby, wife of Frederick was a beer retailer
at Brass Street, Manchester to at least 1911
Any connections?
There is a Lion resting above the door and it is not painted white.
The letters R & L are on the entrance doors
and the windows have a central rampant lion motif...
So it is fairly certain to be the RED LION...... but where?
The .........Inn is straight ahead.
Perhaps CROWN?
The sign in the foreground says.. CAUTION - Drive slowly to avoid collision
Charles Young is licensed to sell
Wines, Spirits, Beer and Tobacco at these premises.
The GLOBE INN
The BELL
somewhere in England...
MITCHELL & BUTLER
Ales are on sale...
and a Crown is etched on the smoke room window.
No other clues though!
The GEORGE HOTEL
in what appears to be the market square?
