Headley Arms, Great Warley

Directories of Great Warley

Headley Arms, Great warley - circa 1925

My g grandfather, Allan George (Bob) Carter was a publican and had the Walnut Tree and later the Angel and Trumpet in Stepney, Middlesex. Here is a picture of him and his two sons on a day trip to a pub, which appears to be the Headley Arms, as the name of the landlord appears to be James R Clifton (name over the door and on the bench).
We have a long family connection with the trade. My gggg grandfather, William Carter, was an Ostler at a pub in Wickford, Essex between about 1810 and 1850. ***

My grandmother lived in The Headley in her teenage years with her 9 brothers and sisters. John Holloway was her father and my Great grandfather. John was the licensee, born in 1865 we think, and was therefore aged 49 in 1914 as listed on your known residents. He lost his licence eventually because he let people in after hours! There is another good picture of the Headley circa 1955 in the Francis Frith Collection. *
