TF4576 : 16 Church Street, Alford

taken 5 years ago, near to Alford, Lincolnshire, England

16 Church Street, Alford
16 Church Street, Alford
Grade II Listed former public house. Early 18th century raised in the late 18th century. Marked on the 1887 map as an Inn and by 1905 just as P.H. The 1971 map simply has the number 16. In a 1901 trade directory I found the Red Lion, addressed as 'Church View'. In another I found the Red Lion in 'East End' and this building isn't far from East End Garage. By 1913 it is in Church Street. I'm persuaded therefore this was previously the Red Lion. Here are the directory entries I found for the Red Lion; 1828 Thomas Smith; 1835 William Kemp, East End; 1841-1856 Henry Cadney Raithby, East End; 1861 John Henry and Frederick Raithby (& posting house, maltsters, brewers & farmers) East End; 1868 William Tasker, East End (& posting house); 1872-1885 Thomas Hutton, East End; 1889-1896 Francis Dowse Lake, High Street and also East End; 1901 no victualler named, Church View; 1909-1919 Mrs Martha Thacker, High Street then later Church Street.
