Search the London & Southern England Pub History site and Street directory by historical Pub name, surname or street address, i.e. use the search box below. The Pub history site is a major historical street directory which lists mainly Pubs, beer retailers, taverns and hotels; and street name changes between about 1840 and 1940. All transcriptions and imagery is copyright, and excepting personal usage (which is fine); is NOT available for commercial usage without explicit permission. Many of the Pubs are still open, as I do not differentiate between dead and open Pubs. The site is updated every day, mainly during pub opening hours.

This is a photo of my Grandmother Isabel Adams (the little girl), her brother Charles William Robert Adams and my Great Grandparents Charles Robert Adams and Isabel (nee Hinchliff) Adams.

Their marriage in 1886 shows them at 61 Coventry Street, and the 1891 Census shows them  here at the Old Rose. I'm not sure which pub this photo was taken in. On the back of the photo is a stamp that shows, J. Martin, Photographer, Cannon Street Rd, St. Georges. ***

The baptism record of Isabel Edith Adams, in November, 1887 to Charles Robert and Isabel is at the Old Rose.  ***

At earlier dates, Charles and his brother Frank are barmen in 1881 at th Cock, High Street, Whitechapel; and before this at his fathers Pubs, e.g. at the Britannia, Canning Town ***

Apologies for the delay in updates at present, but I suffer from BT Infinity. BT Infinity appear to have a severe shortage of trained engineers, hence my broadband not working for nearly a week, so far. The BT engineer has purportedly fixed the problem, and not bothered to visit. I apologise reservedly for the total lack of care by BT Infinity in this matter of NOT fixing my broadband. Have you tried Virgin broadband, allegedly faster according to Ofcom. I do not think that BT care, but I do!
