Link :Old Pubs website
« on: Friday 27 August 10 11:22 BST (UK) »
Hi

I was looking for some information on name changes of streets and found this site. It uses pub listings in census returns based on parish churches, to quote the site

"Search the London & UK Pub History site and Street directory by historical Pub name or street address. The Pub history site is a major historical street directory of London and the Southern area of the UK, listing many Pubs (either closed or open); and street name changes between about 1840 and about 1940."

Pub History of London, Essex, Kent, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Middlesex, Suffolk, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Sussex, Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Devon, Somerset & Dorset.

Hope somebody finds it useful!

Came across this site http://www.deadpubs.co.uk/ May be of use if you are looking for ancestors who may have been the pub trade.
