The Cockpit pub, St Andrew's Hill, London
Interesting factoid of the day:
"The Cockpit pub marks the approximate site of a house once bought by William Shakespeare for the princely sum of £140."
A little vague but apparently there is some truth to it.

In cute little Greenwich, this pub epitomizes a proper English Pub (in my mind). But what do I know, I grew up in Nashville, TN 😎

The Boot is rich in history being built around the time of The War of The Roses-The Battle of St Albans.
Thank you all for visits, favs and comments, it's greatly appreciated!
The Chequers used to be a pub and goes back to Elizabethan times. It is dilapidated now and dangerously close to the River Ver flowing around it, and to a major trunk road, the A 5183 connecting the motorway with Dunstable. However, it is a listed building with some heritage and therefore protected by law. Any owner would not be allowed to change its substance and layout and, if "modernised", all changes would have to be in keeping with tradition. This is a major challenge, and for the last decade, nobody has come forward to accept this challenge. So, decay and dilapidation do continue, together with the protection. Fuji X-Pro3, 35/1.4 lens.
The village near where we live has one small pub which makes the best pizza in the area, also billiards, classic rhythm and blues music, and the latest gossip. A good weekend to everyone!
I just loved this building, I talked with the owner for about 30 minutes, and he was telling me all the history. He said the pub was called "The Empress" after a ship, but he thought it was more to do with Queen Victoria as In 1877, Benjamin Disraeli, Conservative Prime Minister, had Queen Victoria proclaimed her Empress of India.
However, I said look at the back of the building and the widows and the shape of it, I said it looks like the back of an old galleon ship. "Like below" and he wow I never looked at it that way before......
The Harp Pub along West Main Street, Belleville, Illinois. I’ve visited The Harp many times to photograph its unique character from the street view and sides to capture every angle. However, in this image, I wanted to zero in on the contrasty yellow and black colors complimented by the brickwork, shadows, and electrical line running across the image. It’s a simple photo with clean lines, but compelling with all of those textural elements. Architexturefotos - building stories one frame at a time.
At any pub, there can always be a bit of a scuffle to get your favourite bar stool when it is busy.

The Irish pub is truly an institution.
It's where we meet to socialise with friends have some food & drinks.

The Quays is where I can be found when I'm visiting Galway.
This photo captures a spontaneous moment of pure joy as a woman breaks into an impromptu Irish dance outside of a pub in The Rocks, Sydney. With her arms held closely to her side and her feet flying, she embodies the spirited energy of the Irish dance. Passersby look on with delight and amusement, clapping rhythmically to the beat of the tune.

Situated in Hulls Old Town Area, This building was once the Seamans Mission and this beautiful stained glass window shows a poignant reminder of its religious past,
The Barge and Bottle, is in Sleaford, Lincs. It relates to the River slea, which runs through the market town.

This Drinker Moth caterpillar (Euthrix potatoria) is named for its habit of drinking water droplets from the coarse grass stems on which it feeds. This individual appears to have drunk from the water droplet behind it, then crawled along to the next drop.
Very much a right place/right time shot! This species is found throughout the UK, quite common in the south but less so up here in Scotland - a bit surprising, considering its preference for damp habitats! I was lucky enough to spot this caterpillar one morning in between all the rain and showers we have had lately. I thought it had enough curiosity value to make it preferable to the image I had already finished for this week's theme.
The small village of Flamstead (about 1300 inhabitants) in Hertfordshire has two pubs in the direct vicinity of St Leonard's. Leica M8, Elmar (collapsible) 2.8/50.

Da ich nicht das ganze Jahr über in Irland sein kann habe ich mir Zuhause ein Irish pub gebaut!
