Pub signs in pictures.


The old pubs of Boston are disappearing fast and many of the ones that are left have just signs that show letters only so I thought it would be a good idea to collect pictured pub signs of Boston past and present.








The Bell (where the Stump and Candle is now) from an old engraving.



The Spirit of Endeavour.




The Crown and Anchor.

The Woad Man


Looks like I just caught The Wellington sign in time.


















The Unicorn.

  1. Hi! I'd be interested to hear more about the Crown and Anchor. I've seen the sign and read the plaque, but that about it.

    1. Hi John, there's a little bit more om May 1st blog titled "Boston Pubs".
      George Bass lived there for a while, the old Crown and Anchor building is now boarded up but I just hope it's not demolished in the future.
