The Pubs of Wheathampstead

1830 to 1914

This page of our website is linked to the book of the same title that was published in June 2019.

There were 26 pubs in the parish of Wheathampstead in this period, each with its own unique history. The book places them in their wider historical context, gives a brief account of each one, and draws together a number of themes that are common to them all. This website includes their 26 individual histories.

Having sold more than 400 copies, the book is now out of print. Copies are available for loan at Wheathampstead Community Library in Marford Road.
