White Hart

Picture source: Hania Franek


The White Hart was situated at 27 Bridge Street. This grade-II listed pub was present by 1830 when the publican was Samuel Burnham. It has now been converted to a McDonalds restaurant.
My great great grandfather, John Kirk, a Yorkshireman, was publican here in 1877/1878 until he died following an accident in August 1878, the inquest was held at the pub. He lived there with his second wife, her two children and his two children which included my great grandmother.
