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.

A Charlotte Cakebread (nee Allard) was the wife of the Samuel Charles
Cakebread who was there in 1871 and the mother of the Samuel Charles
Cakebread who was there in 1881. So, she is probably the Mrs Charlotte
Cakebread referred to. She died on 4 May 1890 (so presumably, which is
normal) the Post Office Directory had not been updated in 1891.
