BOLD DRAGOON, 3 Carlisle Street

BOLD DRAGOON  #

3 Carlisle Street / 20 Park Road

*

Synonymous with the Guild Tavern

It would appear that in 1838 it opened as the BOLD DRAGOON, and then between 1861 and 1871 the name was changed to the Guild Tavern. My guess is that it was in 1862, at the time of 

 the Preston Guild.

The above sounds as though it could have been Richard Page, the 

earliest landlord I have a record of. Perhaps he had a manager on

the premises - see MINE HOSTS.
