Description
An illustrated account of the public houses and bars of Cowes, Gurnard and Northwood on the Isle of Wight in the United Kingdom. The history of the buildings is given, an account of them since they first became licensed premises, their recent history either of their current management or, if no longer licensed premises, of the subsequent usage of the buildings. Points of historical interest are included and maps are provided.
An overview of the changes in licencing laws since the early 19th century is given as well as the growth of Cowes since that time. Pubs which have been named in early documents but never accurately located are listed, and, finally, the breweries which once existed in Cowes are identified.
This book was originally published by Cowes Heritage in 2010 and updated in 2016. David Jones, the original author, died in 2023, and this new edition has been edited, expanded and updated by David Millar for the Trustees of the Cowes Heritage and Community Group.
