Description
Welcome to our newest version of this popular title.
Our 4th (2025) edition brings you up to date with licensed establishments that have come and gone since the previous edition in 2012.
New photos and maps of the town, showing how many pubs have gone .
Read about the family involved with at least ten pubs in Cowes, landlords who met a sad end at the Workhouse, which hotel installed the ‘marvellous new electric lighting’ in 1894 and the man who became the youngest and longest-serving publican in Cowes.
If you or your family have lived here, you are bound to remember one or more of the local hostelries and we hope you enjoy this alcohol-free ‘pub crawl’ down memory lane.
