Synopsis: |
The Inns and Alehouses of Stafford: Through the North Gate is the second of two books by Stafford author John Connor. This second volume looks at the drinking establishments outside the ancient town's fortified walls, covering the whole of the north and south ends of the town, reaching the villages of Milford, Brocton, Bradley and Haughton. This presents a definitive review of the history of a wider area of Stafford's beer establishments, listing owners and the history behind the areas pub names and signs. The book is a mine of information that will appeal to local pub buffs and historians alike, and is an essential accompaniment to the first book, Through the South Gate. The entry for the inns and alehouses within the book include a photo of each building, a description of the changes that have taken place to the pub over the years and the names they have been known by. A comprehensive list of licensees of each establishment is also included. This shows who the licensees were, where they came from and where they went to. A short narrative about every inn sign completes each entry.Pubs have always been the hub of the community and in The Inns and alehouses of Stafford: Through the North Gate, readers can learn more about the hostelries that have given separate suburb and village communities over 300 years of drinking pleasure! |
