The Plume of Feathers

[angel~eyes]

Looking for information on the Plume of Feathers, Market Place,Bishop's Stortford. I know my husband's ancestor, Thomas Houghton, was either the owner or landlord at some point (1740-1769) but have no other information on him or the pub. All information greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance M x

There's a Thomas Houghton, of Bishop Stortford, Hertfordshire, maltster, in 1790.
