SHEPHERDS' TAVERN, Laurel Street

SHEPHERDS' TAVERN   #
Laurel Street
*
MINE HOST:
pre-23.10.1841      William Rawcliff(e)
1851                       James Gillibrant (Gillibrand)
*
I think this was on the corner of Laurel Street and Shepherd Street.
*
Preston Chronicle  22nd May 1841
*
Preston Chronicle  23rd October 1841
*
Preston Herald  5th February 1870
The difference in the last two dates of almost 30 years, can partly be accounted for by the beerhouse changing its name to the "Oliver Cromwell". However, I don't think it carried that name for nearly 30 years.
