The article quoted states he was the tenant in 1890,  not the owner.

Yes, and that makes more sense.  He must have been a sitting tenant and the buyer probably kept him on to sell his brand of ales and porter.  The building probably was in much better condition in thse days too (50 odd years before the original photo).

How embarrassing. I am even more pig thick than I realised. I am pleased that I am anonymous.

I can't find "Add Picture" anywhere.

McTalbert,

Once you find the photo just double click on it and it should go into this topic then press the post item button just as though you were making a post on here and it should appear.  Or you could just email it

ShaunJ,

Many thanks for the information. I thought that I was going crackers as I successfully sent some photographs a few days ago.

Many thanks.
