The Winchester (Shaun of the dead)

Homage to Arther Daley’s favourite watering hole ?? … The Winchester Club in the TV program, Minder

Hamilton Hall at Liverpool Street Station … busiest pub in the land ??

Whats the pub at the highest elevation? … Think its in the Lakes, up hardknot pass or something ..??

The Alma Inn is a widespread name with interesting roots.

There used to be two pubs in Ramsgate: the Blazing Donkey, and the North Pole. The latter had a bus stop outside so you could get a ticket to the North Pole.

how could i have forgotten the classic and dirty…’the wormit inn’ in Fife.

Theres a few in Withnail and i…’The Mother Black Cap’, ‘The King Henry’ also ‘The Crow’

Cock & Bull …

I read somewhere that the Elephant and Castle was a bastardisation of Les Enfants de Castille. There you are, a quiz question.

You read rong.
I thought it was a bastardisation of the Infanta de Castille, and was going to throw my board rubber your way, but apparently, according to Wiki (!) they did actually keep elephants there!

Henry VIII kept a Polar bear at the tower, so Wiki could, maybe, perhaps be right.

There’s a lot of ” The Tiger’s Head”s in SE Londo/Kent too…

No use for your quiz, but I was always intrigued by “The House Without A Name” in Bradshaw, Bolton.

The boardroom at the Lee’s brewery in Middleton is the one that is/was used by Coronation Street.

Tan hill in Swaledale – I had to google, I always thought it was the cat and fiddle but that is second apparently… every day’s a school day

The pub that features prominently in The Framley Examiner (Google it, it’s ace) is called The Warm Zippy. I do like that.

I have an.old stable at the bottom of the garden and as we couldn’t think of anything better to do with it we’ve turned that into a pub. We’ve been pretty traditional with the name though (as it’s a proper, traditional pub dontchaknow) and called it The Kilson’s Arms (partner’s surname is Kilbane so it’s pretty obvious what we did there).

The Frog and Roastbeef – highest pub in Europe (Val Thorens)

It’s terrible….. Cafe Snesko is next door and so only a couple of feet of elevation lower, and was the scene of much danish schnapps-fueled apres-ski carnage.

Although that’s probably a bit convoluted for a pub quiz question.
