God Begot House - the front

Posted by Picasa
Following on from yesterday's post, here is God Begot House from the front, it's one of the most well known landmarks in Winchester. The building was a hotel in 1866 until 1970. The front has been restored and is not as old as the rear.

    Sorry to see that pub isn't serving the public anymore! But a lot of pints were served and a lot of merriment did go through there!

    Thanks for dropping by, it's a nice building. The owners were planning to demolish it in the 1930s! Fortunately the local council wouldn't let them!

    Thanks for the view. I have 3 postcards with artists view of the hotel in 1957.
