Licensed to Sell: The History and Heritage of the Public House Book

The traditional English pub is a thing of the past. Such has been the orgy of change since the 1960's that less than 4 per cent have interiors of any historic value. This appealing new book focuses especially on what can still be seen of our once-rich pub heritage. It describes how the long and interesting history of the pub, and changing attitudes towards it are reflected in its design and planning, and how it was organised to serve and entertain the customer. It also deals with the often magnificent embellishment of pubs with ornamental glass, tilework and carved wood in the golden age of pub building around 1900. The book contains over 150 photographs of pub interiors as well as plans illustrating and explaining the development of the public house through the ages.Read More
