11 February

We went looking for the location of yesterdays pic, we got close, with the Star and Garter at the back the Petersham Hotel, in the middle, and the The Rose of York pub at the bottom... the lodge has long gone...

update.. the buildings at the bottom of the pic yesterday may have been Almshouses (scroll to base of page) demolished in 1953.. Margie is quite the internet sleuth. Though I'm not convinced these are the same buildings, the Star and Garter looks all wrong and the chimney pots are wrong on the lower building... However the description may be right, but the wrong pic on Richmond Local History's part.

10 February

A few days ago my bloggy friend Margie sent me this pic of the Star and Garter at the top of Richmond Hill, seen from Petersham Meadows, its obviously an old pic as there have been a number of changes to the Star and Garter since then. I think the building in the foreground might be Devonshire Lodge, but I could be wrong... but that has gone too...
