You can also search the London & UK Pub History site and Street directory by historical Pub name or street address.
The Pub history site is a major historical street directory of London and the Southern area of the UK, listing many Pubs (either closed or open); and street name changes between about 1840 and about 1940.
If your Pub is still OPEN (and not a dead pub), why not send a picture and some details - to clarify this.
Please Contact: Kevan with any updates and additions to the site.

BT Infinity Fibre Optic
Technical issues:
Technical problems are often fixed from
a checklist which is in my memory, when it works.
The new BT Infinity service operates
using fibre optic. This has been around for the last thirty years, but slowly
getting better.
BT have been using twisted copper wires
for ever, these are the final connection to your telephone. This connection is a
problem because of attenuation (general resistance) over a long distance from
the telephone exchange, but is exacerbated (made worse) by the number of
telephones / internet connections within a house.
The new fibre optic connections appear
to avoid many of these problems; as the fibre optic cables are installed to the BT
cabinets, with only a short 'copper cable connection to the house. The fibre optic cable is run from the telephone exchange similar to an electricity
ring-main. This reduces the impact of being a considerable distance from the
telephone exchange. The other important feature that is useful is that fibre
optic cables can be run alongside mains cables without risk of electrical
currents and earthing.
