Peter T Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Great as usual. In the first one, the picture of the Mulberry, is that the Red Lion on the left, but called the Bowling Green? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Peter, it is the Red Lion, they were justly proud of their bowling green and advertised it on the front of the building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
