![]() |
The original Old House at Home
in Broadwater. It may be considered an unusual name for a pub but its actually a popular one. It is said to be based on a Victorian song of that title. The building began as a beer house and didn't adopt the name until around 1901. The picture left, shows Alice Margaret Guiel daughter of George Guiel (foreground) and Elizabeth Smith Guiel, George's wife.
