The Laindon Hotel

Kindly provided by Bill - see lots more info at Basildon History

My ancestor Tracey Hollowbread (who married James Mead) is listed as being a resident in 1871 at "The Prince of Wales Beerhouse, Laindon", this address is repeated in the 1881 and 1901 censuses. I haven't searched the 1891 census properly yet.

Furthermore, in 1861 Tracey's uncle Hezekiah is listed as living at "Beerhouse, Laindon" and as well as his family he has lodgers who are said to live at "Hollowbread's Beerhouse, Laindon" I think this name could have been the pre-cursor to "The Prince of Wales" although I have not verified that they are one and the same building yet. ***

Rebuilt in the 1930's

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!
