Ghost signs on former Flowing Well pub, 76-78 Broughton Road, Banbury

The signs were revealed following the removal of timber cladding from the wall after the pub closed in 2011. It has since been converted into 2 houses.

 

The pub can be seen open in March 2011 www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.059047,-1.348652,3a,75y,1h,90t/...

 

Building work is underway in this view from June 2014 www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.059048,-1.348646,3a,75y,1h,90t/...

 

This article says the pub was once called the Constitution Tavern www.banburyguardian.co.uk/news/community/retro/a-warm-wel...

 

The pub is listed as the Constitution Tavern in the telephone book between 1962 and 1982. The earliest reference I can find to the Constitution Tavern is in the 1939 Kelly's Directory.

 

The Hunt Edmunds brewery was absorbed by Bass, Mitchells and Butlers in the 1960s en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunt_Edmunds
