Mystery Hotel 1912 ????????

[J.J.]

You are good, Indi.!..and Paul first focussed in on the word Hotel...!
It does say Railway hotel...we are looking behind the older fellow's head, in the window...Not that it helps unless one can find a vender's list from the era?

_IARA?
VAT
ALE

[mich b]

Yeah, well done IPA.

 

[J.J.]

Can't seem to get anymore than the word place to focus in, but then maybe your eyes can see something in the first part...
 

[J.J.]

Someone had a list of street names from the era...
anything look like the !$#@*&#* PLACE in the above (er previous) image?

[J.J.]

AND....It was moi....India Pale Ale who first said that it was a Railway Hotel  !!!

SO...what do you think of them apples!

 

I think they should name a beer after you...! I'll drink to that! J.J.

The hotel reminds me of the old 'station' hotels which were situated near the railway stations in most of the major northern towns. There is one next to the station in York that looked very much like yours

I think that qualifies

Isn't it amazing how you can read someone's RC name and get it totally wrong!

I always thought you were indiapaleale  - I just never read it as India Pale Ale!

OK Dave....I concede

However......I have never heard of a beer called Dave the Tyke!
