BOATMAN'S ARMS, 53 Marsh Lane

BOATMAN'S ARMS
53 Marsh Lane
*
The keystone over the stable-yard entrance indicated that the pub was built in 1900. Alfred Latus was the first
landlord. I think the Boatmans replaced an earlier pub, probably the Fly Boat Tavern.

    My granddad kept this pub and several others in the Preston area finishing at the Lord Raglen in Harrington Street I believe.
