Coach & Horses, Back Street/Chapel Street Billericay

This is the same pub as the Crown Tap, which is also listed separately under Billericay. I have seen two theories of the Crown Tap's origin, one suggesting that it was established in 1817, the other that it was present in the 18th century. It appears to have been so-named because it stood to the rear of the original Crown beerhouse.
It was renamed the Coach & Horses in the 1860s and rebuilt in its present form around 1928-1935. ***

I get hundreds of emails every day, fortunately most 'spam mails' are deleted by my mail scan settings. The final emails are delivered to various email addresses, and replying to these are not always successful. If you do not hear from me in a timely fashion, please feel free to email again, I do not mind! This is a pure PUBS history site, I doubt if I know where the PUBS are NOW, but try the site for where they were a hundred years ago, again enjoy!
Once you have discovered enough history of Essex; why not study to undergraduate or postgraduate level in Computer Science or Electronics Engineering at the Department of Computing and Electronic Systems, Essex University in Colchester, Essex? It is not only a great place to study, but also a foreleader in technology at an UK leading University with courses and doctoral research in Robotics, Natural Engineering, Intelligent Systems, Embedded Systems, Networking and Photonics, Laser Technology etc.
