Summary

Description
English: Sign for the London Tavern The London Tavern was opened in the 1860s by Mr John Roberts. Apparently Mr Roberts heard the story of an elderly local lady who had been taken ill and a group of people had been dispatched to the White Hart at Poulner to purchase some brandy for medical purposes. The Licensee there refused to oblige as it was late at night and "was not prepared to come downstairs for anyone, living or dying". Being a fair-minded man, Mr Roberts was outraged by this behaviour and decided to open a bar in his own house, this he did after obtaining the necessary licence from the local police superintendent.
