Spread Eagle, North Street, Prittlewell

25th July 1999

Taken by Stephen Parker

Stephen informs that the Spread Eagle was once connected with the cruel sport of cock fighting. The Chelmsford Chronicle of 2 March 1787 announced that a main of cocks was to be fought here on the 7th of the month between 'the gentlemen of that place and the gentlemen of Great Wakering'. The Spread Eagle was reconstructed in 1923. The only reminder of its past is its coaching yard where the Southend-Cambridge coach picked up passengers.
