Publisher description
The late-eighteenth century saw the hamlet of Worthing begin to develop as a fashionable seaside resort, eventually growing to encompass its surrounding villages. It attained town status in 1803, around which time existed the Anchor Inn, subsequently rebuilt and now called the Corner House. Of greater antiquity is the George & Dragon in Tarring, while the nearby Parsonage Bar inhabits a medieval timber-framed building. Other well-established pubs such as the town-centre Warwick and the Cricketers at Broadwater, began as basic beer retailers and brewing victuallers of the early-Victorian period. All have their own quirky tale or two to tell. Worthing Pubs takes us on a fully-illustrated tour of the town's many historical hostelries yet also considers how its drinking culture has been most recently shaped by the emergence of the contemporary craft-beer bar and the burgeoning micro-pub scene
