The Historical Directory of Pubs in the South East of England, including London

Search the Historical Pubs site for the South East of England by street address, surname and known pub names powered by FreeFind

If you have a query then try the search engine first, if you have something to add to the historical Pubs site, please email - and as an added incentive, - if you offer useful information for a Public House or Beer House, then I will usually add lots of extra detail / landlords. All non-copyright pictures are always welcome; BUT, if I do not have relevant pictures on the site, then I do not know where to find them.

I see that Kelly's Directory have made an error. My grandfather's name was Ernest Edwin Askins, not Ernest Edward Askins. (I have a copy of his birth certificate). He was born 6.8.1878 at 16, Great Hermitage Street, St. George in the East. His father was Ernest Albert Askins.

Ernest Edwin Askins was the licencee of this pub until he died on 28.10. 1934 having taken it over around 1911.

After Ernest Edwin Askins died, his widow Elizabeth Askins moved out of the Albert and went to run the Bell Inn in Danbury.

Both Ernest Edwin and his widow Elizabeth are buried in Witham.  *****

I get hundreds of emails every day, fortunately most 'spam mails' are deleted by my mail scan settings. The final emails are delivered to various email addresses, and replying to these are not always successful. If you do not hear from me in a timely fashion, please feel free to email again, I do not mind! This is a pure PUBS history site, I doubt if I know where the PUBS are NOW, but try the site for where they were a hundred years ago, again enjoy!
