Strange Pub Names

[mrs_overall]

Do you know any?
We had 3 pubs in the same street all called the Fleece. Locally they were called the top house, the middle house and the bottom house. The latter one is now officially called The Bottom House.
At any time of day you can ususally find a gay tourist having his photo taken outside it.

The 'As Before' in Ealing. The pub was called 'The Lion' and was due to have a renovation, including the painting of the sign. The painters asked the landlord how he would like the sign done and he replied 'As before'.

The most famous World's End pub is right down the far end of Chelsea. The area is called World's End after it. An apt name because this was once the 'end' of London's world, beyond which was open country, but also because it's one place which newcomers always regarded as the end of the world; 'world' as in 'Earth'. It's a long way from any tube station and from the heart of Chelsea.In the 60's it was a haunt of even more bohemians and eccentrics than the rest of Chelsea had. (Now it's just dull)

Not strange but the pub (unfortunately no longer there) on St. Kilda was the Puff Inn.

One in Mossley called The Blazing Rag

[Baldric]

'The Blazing Donkey'
in the tiny Village of Ham, near Sandwich in Kent.
if you were driving from Deal to Sandwich a road sign used to read;

Ham-----------x miles
Sandwich------x miles

It became the most 'stolen' road sign in the country.
The names are now on seperate finger-boards.

The Organ Inn in Warminster

There's one, or at least there used to be, not to far from me call Tucker's Grave, a very strange unwelcoming looking place.

Just had a look on Google, seems it is still open and somewhat done-up compared to the last time I went past.
Must call in one day!

For those of an apotheosotic bent The Bananas in Great Yarmouth

A pub near me is called "King of the Belgians" and is now thought to be the only pub in the UK bearing that name, I have tried to find more pubs with the same name on Google but with no success

In Normanton, West Yorkshire there is a pub called 'Hark to Mopsey'.
It used to have a different name, but one night there was a fire and the landlord and his family were woken up by their dog howling.
The dog was called Mopsey and hark is an old way of saying, listen, so Hark to Mopsey meant Listen to Mopsey (howling). The grateful landlord changed the name of the pub.

One of my favorite pubs is the Roaring Donkey in Cobh.
