Bungay Two Brewers

Closed: between 1912 and early 1930s?
6 Chaucer St
grid reference TM 334 898
The location and picture show what would have been the Two brewers assuming the Chaucer Street numbering scheme hasn't changed. The smaller building to left is the current number 6, though the building to right has an entranceway which may indicate that it was an inn. If you can identify the right building with certainty, please let us know.
The pub was described as "Two Brewers (late)" in the 1909 town Rates book. Since this book was in use until the early 30s, it must have closed some time in that period.
The Two Brewers has also been listed varously in Printing House Street, Printing Office Lane, Chapel Street, Two Brewers Street and Neatgate Street (in the 1879 Kelly's directory, 1881 Census and 1891-92 White's directory).
