The photo shows the British Queen Public House in The Triangle, Lower Willingdon, East Sussex. The pub was originally a double fronted Georgian building, probably comprising two cottages. The mock Tudor façade was built in 1935, when it was part of the Star brewery estate, and the building was extended after being taken over by Courage brewery in 1965. Lying next to the pub is the car park and at the entrance to the car park the British Queen flagpole is flying a half-mast Union Jack in honour and respect of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Because of the name, the British Queen flagpole would seem a particularly fitting place from which to fly the half-mast flag.
