Details
David Kindred's book is a remarkable record of some 400 public houses, inns and beerhouses.
The enteries are organised into two sections. The first describes the public houses that have been closed since 1919 and includes photographs of the establishmentsm while the second lists closures from the eighteenth century to the First World War punctuated with photographs were available.
By consulting archives, borough records, period newspapers and the painstaking research of the late Jack Ruffels, David Kindred has successfully painted a picture of the Ipswich local from frontroom beerhouse to grand hotel.
With interesting anecdotes from town residents, a section on old coaching inns and some 250 photographs, this book shows that the town has enjoyed a truly diverse wealth of inns, taverns and public houses.
