The London, Essex, Kent, Suffolk, Sussex, Surrey, Berkshire, Middlesex, Devon, Buckinghamshire, Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire & Oxfordshire, Norfolk, Dorset Trade Directories

Search the London & UK Pub History site and Street directory by historical Pub name or street address. The Pub history site is a major historical street directory of London and the Southern area of the UK, listing many Pubs (either closed or open); and street name changes between about 1840 and about 1940. If your Pub is still OPEN (and not a dead pub), why not send a picture and some details - to clarify this.
Please Contact: Kevan with any updates and additions to the site.
