PILOT INN, Addison's Yard

PILOT INN
Addison's Yard
*
Formerly the "HUMPHREY'S CLOCK"
*
MINE HOSTS:
1864 - 69                 James Palmer  -  married Susannah Preston, daughter of Richard & Susannah Preston
                                                           of the old Stanley Arms, on Church Street. (From a descendent)
1869                        James Stirzaker Junior - Brewster Session Report, Preston Chronicle 28.8.1869
*
 

Preston Chronicle  30th January 1864
*
Preston Chronicle  30th April 1864
*
DEATH - On the 26th inst., Harriet, 
youngest daughter of Mr. James Palmer, 
the Pilot Inn, Addison's Yard, Church Street,
aged 3 years.
Preston Chronicle  28th August 1864
*
     Preston Chronicle 6th January 1877                                                                              Although it doesn't say as much, but in the context of the article, I have
assumed that "Polly Egan's" is a licensed property.  The fact that it's
been enclosed in apostrophes suggests it was a nickname for something
else.  After 'Humphrey's Clock', this place became 'The Pilot', and no
doubt it had other names as well.
