There was a ¾ size billiard table at the pub, which moved with the family to their new home in Southend-on-Sea. During the war it was used as an air raid shelter, with chicken wire put around the legs. If the bomb blast didn’t kill you, the slate collapsing on you would have! When my Aunt Grace moved into a smaller house, the table went to my Mums in Berkshire, with a room having to be specially built for it. It is used all year long, for meals and especially for the Howes Christmas challenge Cup. ***
