Many thanks and with the same name so I should be able to find something about it in the RO I will try to contact the present landlord to see if he/she has any history of it too many thanks. I wonder why Thomas moved between pubs in the same town though  Huh

Why not? A move to a better, more profitable pub would always make sense.

As always you are being very wiseand logical Newbury Smiley
What I should have said was I wonder what the pubs were like, how near were they and what type of clientel did they attract and so on I need to see if the RO has any records and fingers crossed photographs of the Wheatsheaf and Woodstock Arms at the time of Thomas SIMMS
