Do you remember a halcyon time when we could go to a place and have a drink with people we didn’t live with? Well those days will be upon us again in some kind of fashion on 4 July. Some of these pubs are gone forever, some others rebuilt, and few looking amazingly familiar. We could stare at the pictures all day, and enjoy….

Drank in most those back in the day But you missed out some of the best The Lambeth walk The angel and the feathers in Lambeth walk The Duchy arms And the Old Father Thames to name but a few

Born in wake st then lived on Black Prince road
The Horns is noted as being damaged by a V2 in 1944 but must also have suffered some bomb damage on 30/10/40 during the Blitz. My Grandfather, Frederick Charles Smith was killed by said bomb. The Horns is the only geographic reference we have for his place of death as spoken family history suggests few remains were found. He was cycling from his home in North Cheam to his job as a Constable in the City of London Police when the raid started.
