There are many old buildings alongside the disused Louth Navigation. These buildings are in Thames Street. This may seem an unlikely site for a pub, but the building opposite which they are sitting is the Gaslamp Lounge, lit by real gas lights. An adjacent building to it was once the Louth Gaslight Company, which manufactured its gas from coal transported up the canal. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3069960
