Stanmore: The former Vine public house now the Raw Lasan
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 5 Jun 2011
The Vine was at the top of Stanmore Hill but has now been converted into an Indian and Indo-Chinese Fusion Restaurant http://rawlasan.com/index.html. Lasan is Gujarati for garlic, so the photographer understands. The original Vine pub sign, bearing the name Sedgwicks, is still in situ on the left. The only obvious cross reference to Sedgwicks that the photographer can find is that there was a Sedgwicks family brewery based in Watford, that functioned from 1862 to 1923 when the brewery was taken over by Benskins.
