ABC of Pubs and Cafes, 2024

[Bazzer]

Two pubs by churches...

The Grade 2 listed The Ring O'Bells - Warrington

And
Pack Horse - Culcheth

Here's my X. Or rather Ex.

The Mill on the Exe today in Exeter.

As if on cue, I am stuck on Q.
No Queen anythings for miles around - even the Victoria isn't reginal....

I got Q fairly easily, but have been stuck on x (or ex) for a while.

Still months to go, so we both have a chance at a full alphabet

The Terrace, Dewsbury

It's a pub that's also a live music venue since there aren't many locally. The only other one is literally over the road, but they've been curtailed having events.

I also stopped later at the Tiny Tea Room in Rodley, Leeds.

 

[Bazzer]

The Famous King & Queen - Orford

A name which gives the sign writers more latitude than naming a particular king or queen

And
Raven Inn - Glazebury

A building believed to originate from the mid C16th, and which the local council until very recently when locals bought the place, were prepared to grant planning permission for it to be demolished and replaced by houses.
Yes, where I live, you just can't turn a corner without coming across yet another C16th building. (Not!)

The Union Rooms, Batley

It used to be a Barclays Bank about 15 years ago.

And there's a new 'T' - The Taphouse - just behind where I am in the photo.
