London & the UK pubs by local authority district in August 2018
This site is obviously about London and pub history, and also connects to my other pub history sites. Initially, just the London Borough pubs, now I have added the rest of the country. Listed by the Foods Standards Agency at August 2018, there are currently 4441 London pubs open in total. Including the rest of the country; this will take the number to 51,678 open pubs. The number of establishments is noted in parentheses for each local authority district.To add any of these pubs to my pub history sites, I just need a photograph, either modern or old, and the address, plus any further detail you may have. Help me add all of the UK pubs to my sites please.

What I am now attempting to achieve is the coverage of an earlier London
street directory in 1832. This is unique, plus
images of the 1842 Robsons directory which confirm earlier entries and also
carry much more trade detail about a premises or person. Here is the index of streets in 1832, many with
1842 imagery added.
And next is the complete 1940 London street directory - this will take some months to complete, so bear with me!
