  • The Pubs, Inns and Beer Houses of Brentford Introduction the General
    The Pubs, Inns and Beer Houses of Brentford Introduction The general history of the development of public houses has been well documented elsewhere. Although ale had been drunk since the Bronze Age, formal drinking establishments probably originated when tabernae (taverns) were set up at points along the road network built by the Romans from the 1st century. As well as providing facilities for travellers and pilgrims, inns traditionally acted as community gathering places. In Brentford the heyday of inns such as The Three Pigeons and The Coach and Horses was during the 18th and early 19th centuries when travel on horseback and in horse-drawn coaches was at its height. The consumption of gin, introduced from Holland in 1586, eventually gave rose to a new kind of establishment where customers were served at a bar and they drank standing up. Partly to discourage the drinking of gin the Beerhouse Act of 1830 allowed any householder to sell beer and cider on the payment of a two guinea fee to the Excise. The number of beer shops then grew very rapidly in areas such as Brentford and concern about this situation led to the passing of the 1869 Wine and Beerhouse Act which was designed to curtail the number of outlets. All drinking establishments, including beer shops were then brought under the control of local magistrates. However many houses that did not obtain a full licence managed to continue in business providing that the house conformed to all legislation and was kept orderly. These continued to simply sell beer and cider.

OLD COUNTRY INNS OF ENGLAND Uniform with this volume INNS AND TAVERNS OF OLD LONDON Setting forth the historical and literary associations of those ancient hostelries, together with an account of the most notable coffee-houses, clubs, and pleasure gardens of the British metropolis. By HENRY C. SHELLEY With coloured frontispiece, and 48 other illustrations L. C. PAGE & COMPANY 53 Beacon Street, Boston, Mass. The Chequers, Loose HENRY P. MASKELL EDWARD W, GREGORY With THE AUTHORS BOSTON L. C. PAGE & COMPANY MDCCCCXI PREFACE " WHY do your guide books tell us about nothing but Churches and Manor Houses ?" Such was the not altogether unjustifiable complaint of an American friend whose motor car was undergoing repairs. He was stranded in a sleepy old market town of winding streets, overhanging structures and oddly set gables, where every stone and carved beam seemed only waiting an interpreter to unfold its story. In the following pages we have attempted a classification and description of the inns, which not only sheltered our forefathers when on their journeys, but served as their usual places for meeting and recreation. The subject is by no means exhausted. All over England there are hundreds of other old inns quite as interesting as those which find mention, and it is hoped that our work may prove for many tourists the introduction to a most fascinating study. Thoughtful men, including earnest Church- men such as the Bishop of Birmingham and 906604: vi Preface the Rev. H. R. Gamble, are asking the question whether the old inns should be allowed to disappear.

  • Archaeology Desk Based Assessment & Heritage Statement
    WELSFORD STREET LONDON, SE1 5RA ARCHAEOLOGY DESK BASED ASSESSMENT & HERITAGE STATEMENT VOLUME 1: ARCHAEOLOGY Prepared for LB Southwark Mills Whipp Projects Ltd., 40, Bowling Green Lane, London EC1R 0NE 020 7415 7044 [email protected] December 2017 Executive Summary The purpose of the desk based assessment of archaeology is to identify the archaeological potential of the development site and summarise the impact of the proposed development on it. It has been prepared by Mills Whipp Projects. The site is centred on National Grid Reference TQ 3411 7858 and is approximately 0.21ha in area. During the preparation of this report the Greater London Historic Environment Record (HER) was consulted for an area of 500m radius centred on TQ 3411 7858 (Historic England report No. 137750) (Fig. 2). The chief cartographic sources have been used and a selection of these is appended as illustrations. This research shows that the subject site does not contain any Scheduled Ancient Monuments and does not lie within a Designated Archaeological Area as defined in Schedule Ancient Monuments & Archaeological Areas Act 1979. The site does not contain any listed buildings but does lie within in the Bermondsey Lake Archaeological Priority Zone (APZ). Under the provision of Saved Policy 3.19 a pre- determination evaluation of the site will be required. There are no known non- designated archaeological remains listed within Historic England’s Historic Environment Record on the site. During the prehistoric/Roman period the site is likely to have lain a few hundred metres north of the Bermondsey Lake. Ancient occupation would probably have focussed on the lake’s shoreline and Neolithic and Bronze Age peats and a platform have been recorded by the Old Kent Road.

    Old Kent Road Community Forum Historic townscape, character and heritage assets 26th March 2015 Edmund Bird - Heritage Advisor MAYOR OF LONDON Post joint-funded by English Heritage Drive‐by perceptions of the Old Kent Road? Identifying our heritage assets and managing change to conserve and enhance their character and significance Old Kent Road Business Atlas study area History • The Romans built Watling Street between Dover, Canterbury, London, St Albans and the Midlands and Wales ‐ today the stretch between London and Kent is the A2 and Old Kent Road is a part of this ancient highway • In the medieval and Tudor periods the OKR was known simply as Kent Street and was lined with coaching inns. Canterbury pilgrims rest at St Thomas A Watering site of the Victorian public house Thomas a Becket. • In the Georgians and early Victorian period streets of grand houses were built off the OKR such as Surrey Square (1796) and Glengall Road (1844). • In 1811 the Grand Surrey Canal opened, bisecting the OKR, followed by more industry such as the South Metropolitan Gas Works of 1833 • The railways arrived in the 1840s when the Bricklayers Arms terminal opened (1844) later becoming a vast goods station. In the 1860s horse‐drawn trams begun running along the OKR, replaced by electric trams by the end of the century. • In the later Victorian era, the Edwardian period and the inter‐war years OKR became a major centre of shopping and entertainment with theatres, cinemas and clubs. • The area declined rapidly in the post‐war years as all the cinemas closed, the Bricklayers Arms goods depot closed in 1981, the Surrey Canal closed in the 1940s and was filled in, and the Bricklayer’s Arms flyover destroyed an historic quarter in 1967.
