Above photo, circa 1947. Stanley and Molly Wright were the licensees through the war years and later. Sailors would leave gift war trophies to be displayed in the bar. Stanley served as a P.O. in WW1 in the Royal Navy on board the battleship HMS Queen Elizabeth.

Stanley kept a very heavy brass tampion plaque (a seated Elizabeth 1) which can be seen on his immediate left behind the pump handle.

Above brass tampion.

Local knowledge, further pictures, and licensee information would be appreciated.

I will be adding the historical information when I find or are sent it, but this project is a very big one, and I do not know when or where the information will come from.

All emails are answered.
