Newbury Park: The former County and former Horns Tavern

A couple of months after Alex took his Image and The County appears to have closed to business. Looking at the closing down party Halloween notices still left outside the pub this probably happened around the end of October 2010. The pub was on Horns Road. Old Ordnance Survey maps show that this area was originally a linear village known as Ley Street and an older building called the Horns Tavern is shown on the 1896 map. Probably the same building is also shown on the 1864 map but without a name. The building is still shown on the map of 1919, but by 1939 the current building is shown as the Horns Tavern.
