London historical street directories and pub history
Here are a considerable number of historical directories of London publicans, beer houses, hotel, coffee houses etc.; and another more interesting page of London pub history describing a London historical pub site which I have been attempting to build for nearly twenty years. In this site, I also include all of Middlesex and Essex, and now includes parts of Kent and Surrey etc which are now parts of London. See the navigation menus.
