local pub history - Preston lancashire

Hi,

This is a useful website
pubsinpreston.blogspot.co.uk/

Regards

I was compiling a database of Preston Pubs/Beerhouses, but it looks like someone has beaten me to it.

pubsinpreston.blogspot.co.uk is well researched and has a lot more information than I do

Regards

Take a look at http://pubsinpreston.blogspot.com for details of over 760 inn's, taverns or beer-houses in the old borough of Preston.

Find out lots of information, and make your contribution to it - you never know what you might get back in return.

33,000 page views in just 4 months on this great new site

Well done Pubsinpreston, brilliant research, far more advanced than my own research

Keep up the good work

Cheers

The last message I made in this thread was about a person who turned out not to be my ancestor, but I do have another ancestor who was an innkeeper in Preston - my maternal 4x great grandfather Edward Alston, who in 1851 was the landlord of the Horse Shoe Hotel at 88 Church Street (later on known as the George Inn). I am assuming that Pubsinpreston is the person I sent an email to about Edward and his being mentioned on his site?
