Union, 23 Glasshouse Street, St James, Westminster

Westminster St James index

Glasshouse Street is formerly Marylebone Street, Piccadilly (comparing 1851 & 1856 street directories proves this).  This is therefore previously the Union, 25 Marylebone Street, which intersects with Air Street, Regent Street.

A listing of historical public houses, Taverns, Inns, Beer Houses and Hotels in Westminster - London. The Westminster,  London listing uses information from census, Trade Directories and History to add licensees, bar staff, Lodgers and Visitors.

The following entries are in this format:

Year/Publican or other Resident/Relationship to Head and or Occupation/Age/Where Born/Source.

The May, 1853 birth of daughter of Henry Testar and Susannah Hemery Testar was recorded at St James Westiminster. Dad's occupation is listed as "victualler". The family address was then Union Tavern, 25
Air Street, Regent St. This seems consistent with some old family papers that suggest the Hemerys, at some point, ran at least two pubs. ***
