Taunton: faded former ownership

Nos 4 and 5 Canon Street are Grade II listed and date from the early 19th century. Faded paintwork above the first-floor windows shows that this was once a pub owned by Hanbury & Cotching, whose brewery was on Canon Street. Its 78 pubs were sold in 1923 to Starkey, Knight and Ford, whose Prize Medal Ales, Wines, Spirits and Aerated Waters are advertised to the left and right of the doorcase.
