Search the London & Southern England Pub History site and Street directory by historical Pub name, surname or street address, i.e. use the search box below.
The Pub history site is a major historical street directory which lists mainly Pubs, beer retailers, taverns and hotels; and street name changes between about 1840 and 1940.
All transcriptions and imagery is copyright, and excepting personal usage (which is fine); is NOT available for commercial usage without explicit permission.
Many of the Pubs are still open, as I do not differentiate between dead and open Pubs.
The site is updated every day, mainly during pub opening hours.
Please contact: Kevan with any updates and additional details to the site/s. Thanks.
History of Poplar High Street through the last two hundred years.
The transcription of Trade Directories and
census; plus a brief synopsis of the census through about a 100 year time span
for the Poplar High Street area. It gets quite interesting as the years
roll on, and we start to see motor vehicles and wireless mentioned in the 20th
century.

Best Broadband Providers in the UK - tested in October 2010.
Recommendations for a web site provider are:
eukhost.com - see my Whats New page to clarify this
An exceptionally strong recommendation for a Gas Safe engineer in Essex is N R Heating who fixed several gas leaks in my home today. The work was very professional, totally committed to safety and quality; plus the price was very competitive; and after sales service is again exceptional. New boiler installation was also another brilliant service. A very high class recommendation for a Gas Safe Engineer in Essex and London.
Apologies for British Telecom who provide my broadband until the 18 month contract ends. I suffer from BT Infinity.
who appear to have a severe shortage of lack of after sales service, hence my broadband not working for nearly a week, so far.
The BT engineer has purportedly fixed the problem, and not bothered to visit.
I apologise reservedly for the total lack of care by BT Infinity in this matter of NOT fixing my broadband. I have made three apointments for them to visit, but they appear to not understand customer care and arranged visits.
Have you tried Virgin broadband, allegedly faster according to Ofcom. I am certain the service is also better.
I do not think that BT care, but I do!
