Pubs often get mentioned in press reports, due to fights etc. ... search the Times online archive, British Library 19th C. newspapers archive, if you can get access via a library. Check out whether any local papers available at Lambeth or at British Newspaper Library. Likewise, Lambeth Archives might have a photo, although that would be lucky.Lee Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09812128348822569086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7458031571764013912.post-41723363243120098592010-11-12T08:09:34.263-08:002010-11-12T08:09:34.263-08:00Where would I find out some information about The ...Where would I find out some information about The Lion Public house 1 mosedale street Camberwell 1890<br /><br />mark.whitewood@ntlworld.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7458031571764013912.post-30125752700355075662010-11-10T12:01:02.967-08:002010-11-10T12:01:02.967-08:00Check out this post

I think the grouping of jewellers and watchmakers around Clerkenwell came about during the Huguenot immigration. So that when the Huguenots deliberately faded into the general culture, the manufacture of timepieces still continued there. The Smith & Sons clock at Angel was made there.<br /><br />Similarly, I believe that the turning of Bishopsgate into an area of cloth-making came about, first, by Huguenot cloth makers settling there and later, immigrants from the Low Countries following the same trade.<br /><br />I must say that I like the sound of "pretty horsebreakers", though I am not sure whether it is the horsebreakers or the horses who were pretty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
