OLD DOG INN, Church Street

OLD DOG INN   #

133 Church Street

*

 

I'm not sure when this sign was in situ, but it is believed to

be a long while ago. 

(I'm advised that it could be as recent as the 1990s)

If you compare this fragment of the building with the

photograph above it, I'm sure you'll agree it's a good fit
