Pubs and Inns

A tavern since 1695, the Lamb & Flag is owned by St John's College and was voted Oxford's best pub by CAMRA members in 2016. It has some association with JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis and was apparently where Thomas Hardy wrote most of his last novel, Jude the Obscure.

Fiona Glass on Britain’s most haunted placesFascinating and great fun too - thanks! Muncaster Castle is a good one for future lists although the bedroom that's supposed to be haunted is rather "staged" (kept cold, painted a darkish blue etc)!
Lisa G. on Coventry’s Blitz and CathedralWow.

NatG on Britain’s most haunted placesInteresting. My parents have often told us about an encounter some 50 plus years ago at Markenfield Hall when the hall was uninhabited and a key could be borrowed to look around it. My dad wanted to look at it as part of a project he was doing for a

marmeladegypsy on Coventry’s Blitz and CathedralThis is magnificent, Mike. I think most of us who have read about WWII know the basics of what happened to Coventry, but not with the detail and visuals you shared here. And like you, I'm not a fan of modern churches, but from the first photos you shared, I
