Ditchfield: The former Jolly Blacksmith public house

The right end building of this terrace of houses used to be the Jolly Blacksmith public house but is now a private residence. Despite this a large Whitbread sign is still in place on the flank wall round the corner and the very faded pub sign is also still in place in front of the cranes. The 1877 Ordnance Survey map shows the terrace, but only by the 1898 edition does the annotation P.H. appear with a Smithy behind.
