Public Houses named after trees

[David Humphries]

The Royal Oak (aka The Heights) near where i live now.

 

 

Apparantly the Royal Oak is the third most popular pub name in Britain and refers to the tree that King Charles hid in from the Round Heads in 1651

 

Not in existence any more, but a desendent is apparantly.

There was The ash tree in Ashford middx. And we have a mulberry here in Worthing.

Cheers Mr Pirate, looks like people still get to enjoy a pint under its shade

That's the one Mr Humphries - you can just make out an impressive bit of deadwood over the tables on the left of the stem, in front of the barrels.

 

It's been years since I had a pint there, inside as I'd been out all day.

[Kveldssanger]

Not a PH, but Lyndhurst is named after the linden tree.

 

Turns out there's an Oak Inn there. The Oak Inn - Home

 

Nice place - cracking car garage by the town centre. One day shall I have the riches...!

Not exactly answering your question, but if it isn't named after the tree it should be: Fancy a pint in the world's only bar that's INSIDE a tree? | Daily Mail Online

 

Pretty cool Gary:thumbup1:

 

There was one nearby called The Cherry Trees, but it closed unfortunately. Bit of history gone there, all because it got bought out by a parent company and subsequently 're-designed'. Travesty.

 

That's a shame

 

There is one in the village i grew up in called the Yew Tree

Is this the one in the church yard across the road?

 

One near where I used to live called the Broad Oak

 

Is it still standing Andy?

 

The Beech Inn in Chorlton

 

 

On the corner of 'Beech Road' apparantly

Thats the one. Another on the other side called the Griffin Inn where i used to work. Both good pubs.

There is a hamlet near here called Broad oak

[Paul Cleaver]

Theres one called 'the swan (with two necks)' which I think is a mad name for a pub. Totally non tree related mind.

 

we have one in Nantwich - must be a story behind the name

 

I have just found one
