Have you ever run a Pub? You can add your pub history to the UK pub history site. You can contact the pub history site via my email : Kevan. There are over 10,500 images on the site and more than 47,000 pages of pub history - these numbers increase every day as I add new pub history research. The pub history site has now been evolving for more than ten years, with a significant number of additional pub history researchers who regularly update the site with historical detail and imagery, old and new.

This is a local search engine of the UK Pub history site. You can search by surname, street address, or public house name. The search engine updates weekly. If you are looking for a specific pub history listing, some of these can only be found in the sitemap - see the navigation bar on the left.

E6 East Ham
Stations - none. East Ham and Upton Park (District) are just outside the area and Beckton (DLR) is expected to open during the currency of this guide.
Spreading along the Barking Road forming part of the sprawling mass of Victorian urban development between Stratford and Barking or Ilford, East Ham also extends downwards to Beckton and the edges of the Docklands developments. The two parts are divided by the A12 bypass, south of which there used to be mainly derelict land extending as far as Beckton Gas Works - once famed since its owners refused to allow any electricity on the premises, even for lighting.
Now, a mushrooming growth of hypermarkets extends from the Ski slope (near the A12) as far as the little community of Cyprus just north of the Docks. Pubs here are few and the best range in the area is back on the Barking Road near the station, where a good selection of Victorian town pubs near the well restored Town Hall, gives some relief from the more suburban types elsewhere. However, domination of the pubs by the Big Four is general - although guest beers are starting to creep in.
West Ham United (a lesser known club than Leyton Orient) have their football ground near Upton Park station.

Please support a campaign for Bangladesh, which will add a few pence to a piece of clothing emailing these companies who wish to see people dieing without decent rights, and also stop shopping in  these places - thank you. E.g. Debenhams, Gap and ASDA (Walmart). I will remove the companies names when they sign up to a fair deal for the workers in Bangladesh
