Some are still here, some long gone.
I mean look, here's a sketch of all the pubs...

The Grey Hound. This went many years ago so no photos. It stood on the left where the beam building is. It became part of King James I (England) & VI (Scotland) court. (That's another story)
Raise a glass to the memory of the Grey Hound. Cheers!

The Cock *no sniggering at the back!*
The Cock was next to the Grey Hound & it was another building reused by King James. Another with no pics.
There was once a cock fighting pit round here somewhere.
Let's raise a glass to the memory of the Cock.
