My ggrandfather had his name above the door of The Free Traders; which he
ran with my gggrandmother and their four sons that served all in WW2. I have
photos the way it looked inside long ago; although the building has now changed. . There used to be many people who went in there.
My ggrandfather was C J Paine. He had other pubs as well and one day,
including possibly that at 152
Shadwell High Street. **
