London Public Houses information starts with the 1881 census, then Trade Directory entries are added from the Post Office , Kelly and Pigots Directories; plus Petty Session Victuallers records. The information is mostly historical, being up to two hundred years previous. Included too, are many modern and classical images of these public houses; and the occasional Telephone number. There are now over 5,800 London Pubs - i.e. public houses & taverns, Pubs and also includes many beer houses (the early off licences). East London, Essex, City of London Pubs. I spend hours on this Pubs in London site, help me out if you can.
I would like to include the churches next - can you provide me with pictures of these?
These Pubs in London are London landmarks - use this information to search to find your way around London [past & present] , and to give you a pointer to searching for other ancestors. I have to point out that I have purposefully used the 1881 census to place a London Publican in a particular Parish. This does not always compare favourably with modern Postal addresses, but there is a search engine on every page - USE THE SEARCH ENGINE!
How many times have you given directions, that included Pubs as a landmark, think of this London Public Houses site as the historical directory to London.
