Also in this grid square is a photograph of Blackmore House as it is today. Up to 1910 it was a beer house. This photograph shows it as it was in the early part of the 20th Century. The large sign above the doorway says "Gray & Sons" - a Chelmsford Brewery. The small sign above says "The Black Boy".
