also a national treasure. Pub culture is an integral part of life in a village like Coniston. Pubs are a place to go to socialize, relax and have a drink. It's something you should experience if you want to learn about local life and culture – even if you don't drink. This is The Sun Hotel at the top of town, a cozy 17th-century pub with rooms and a nice view over the hills and dales.
(049/365) Nice & cosy last Sunday inside our favourite pub which happens to be called "The Local" although I think "The Churn and Pram" would be a good alternative pub name. It's in a converted stable block in the grounds of Dunbrody Country House Hotel. HWW & HSS!

The chains holding up the sign for the Prospect of Whitby pub in Wapping, London's oldest riverside pub, dating back to 1520.
The name of my village, Markyate, refers to boundaries ('mark' and 'gate'). When you mark something out, you are drawing boundaries around it. Markers are signs pointing to these boundaries, many of them imaginary. There are plenty of these in the village.
The Sun Inn has long gone. The sign is still there. During the high time of the stage coaches connecting London with the Midlands, from the 17th to the 19th century, before the railways took over, there were plenty of pubs in Markyate, hotels, wheelwrights and so on, all catering for the passengers, the drivers, the horses and the coaches coming through. Today, there are only three pubs left (and one of them is new and serves drinks only, so, not really a "pub").
Travelling through the Cotswolds, we ended up at this gorgeous pub where, the old-looking essential literary works were found on a dusty shelf.
Built in 1884, and a Grade 2 listed building, The Shipwrights Arms' has an original tiled mural of the 'Shipwrights' at work. The pub in Tooley Street, next to London Bridge station, has been deliberately kept in a traditional style retaining a central island bar.
Former pub in Grendon, Northamptonshire. The Crown Inn on Manor Road is still decorated with 'Praeds noted Ale and Stout, although it actually says 'PRAEDS NOTED CROWN INN ALE AND STOUT' which obviously makes no sense!
I had to get this up before I was accused of uploading photos out of season! Not that my photos are ever really current, I am always dragging my feet.
One of the most picturesque, popular and famous pubs in Brisbane is the Regatta at Toowong. Suitably, it sits on the very busy Coronation Drive which parallels the Brisbane River out of town to the inner western suburbs. It's quite a difficult pub to get a broad view of because of the volume of traffic and the fact that the traffic lights there are always slowing or stopping cars make getting a clear shot almost impossible even at midnight!
So I took the corner of the side street and got the fine Jacaranda in shot. The iconic trees and their purple flowers are now on their very last flowering legs for the year replaced as always by the red Poinciana trees.
The hotel is superb, notice the beautiful wrought iron balustrades. It was a mid Sunday morning and breakfast was in full flight, perhaps brunch.
The keen eyed will notice behind the tree and on top of the building right above the corner, a little man in a black suit with a funny hat with four X's on it like this XXXX. For those not in the know this is Mr. Fourex, iconic symbol of what was the Castlemaine Perkins Brewing Company which made and continues to do so Queensland's most famous beer - naturally XXXX. In fact, as the crow flies, the brewery is just down the road where it has always been.
Here is some further reading if you are interested.
