The Eight Bells pub, Hatfield
Probably built in C16. See http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-158458-the-eight-bells-public-house-hatfield-he for entry in British Listed Buildings. The building has been used as a pub since at least 1728. It was known as the Five Bells until around 1730 when the number of bells in St Etheldreda's church was increased to 8. Charles Dickens visited Hatfield in 1835 as a journalist to cover the death of the 1st Marchioness of Salisbury in a fire at Hatfield House. Later he included a scene in a Hatfield pub (widely believed to be the Eight Bells) in Oliver Twist.

35 Church Street and The Salisbury Restaurant 20 The Broadway
The Salisbury Restaurant, 20 The Broadway was formerly the Salisbury Hotel. It was built as a temperance hotel in 1885. Archived papers of the 6th Marquess of Salisbury include reference to the hotel redevelopment in 1982-5 but they are currently closed for access. A search of various Kelly's and Post Office directories in the 19th century strangely produced no results.

40 Crown Cottage and 42 Fore Street, Hatfield
Grade II Listed former Rose and Crown alehouse. Probably a 15th century building. A postcard of around 1900-1905 shows a line drawing of the alehouse in 1745 and claims it to be frequented by Dick Turpin, a claim made by the Eight Bells two doors down. By 1756 it was apparently called the 'Mitre' although from around this time it was owned by farmer John Jackson and occupied by William Neale, a tailor. In the 1820s glover and tailor William Hankin was in business here who moved out around 1840 to No.38.
