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.

The Pub History Sitemap

The London Pocket Atlas of London is a fantastic, and very useful source for findn=ing your way around London. particularly in 1900. It is still  a useful aid a hundred years later, and should be considered the London A-Z od past times that never really ages.

Here, I have used the Pocket Atlas to give an idea of the areas, with thumbprints of each image. This resource is suppiled thanks to victorianlondon.org for allowing me to use this material.

There are nine maps, numbered 1 to 9; clever.

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!
