The Green Man, Swindon, Staffordshire, England - Pictorial Pub Signs on Waymarking.com

From their website :-
The Green Man Inn owes its existence to the Duke of Wellington’s Beer House Act of 1830, which permitted a householder, on payment of two guineas to the Excise, to turn his private house into a public house.

Taking advantage of this, dealer Jeremiah Hobson converted one of his rooms into a bar and opened later that year, retailing both ale and cider.

Licensing hours were long: eighteen hours a day, from 4 am to 10 pm, seven days a week, closed only during Divine Service, Christmas Day and Good Friday.

Date of first pub on site: 1830 Name of Artist: Not listed Date of current sign: Not listed
