Public House Complete Details

The following pages contain the details of as many Publics houses from the area that I have found information on, I must admit I have found it quite confusing at times. If each Public house had been called that on a permanent basis, the link could be easily joined, but alas some directories called Pubs, Inns and sometimes Hotels.

I will of course change any details if sufficient evidence meriting a change can be supplied.

The list below is in alphabetical order, and the details regarding landlords is in year order.

I have been lucky enough to be given an old document entitled The Office of Simon Dunning esquire situate at number 2 Parliament Street, in the City of Westminster on the nineteenth day of March 1878. The document itself is far to big to include all of it here. It refers to Henry Brake Auctioneer of Farnborough in the county of Southampton. It does go into the detail of the many pieces and parcels of land situate and being in North Lane in the Parish of Aldershot, it goes on to describe the three messuages tenements cottages, carpenters shop, and outbuildings thereon one of the said messuages is known as the “Nags Head” Public House lately erected by John Hughes. Note, I did look up the word Messuage and in brief it says Messuage, a dwelling house with outbuildings and land assigned to its use.

Row Barge

YearLandlords NameAddress and Other Details
1854James HoughtonOn the Turnpike Road, near to the Basingstoke Canal Wharf bridge.
At one time it was called the Wharf Cafe ?
  During the early 1850`s, this very quiet pub had very few visitors except for the occasional traveller and a few boat people. (It was considered to be the only place in the area where refreshment of any sort could be obtained. With the arrival of the Army in 1854, it was decided to supply a lot of the materials to the area via the Basingstoke Canal, very close to the Row Barge. (Please remember that the Row was sometimes called Houghtons Inn after the Landlord). Business got so hectic that the landlady claimed she was drawing a new barrel of beer every fifty minutes and she said that that sort of consumption carried on all day. The commanding officer at the time, because of a lack of other facilities, decided to use the Row Barge as an admin and meeting centre. However the consumption of alcohol started to cause problems, an edict was issued warning The Houghtons to close the premises in 6 months time. The deadline arrived and no movement had taken place, so the Army decided to send a team of Sappers to remove the roof of the property, the Houghtons had no choice but to move out.
Now demolished.
