The majority of pubs have now reopened after the latest lockdown, albeit still with restrictions. Many pubs currently have temporary trading hours; these are shown where known. We also show pubs we know have still not reopened as temporarily closed.

Please note that due to the pandemic currently being allowed to run out of control, many pubs are having to close temporarily due to staff or customers getting "pinged". Please check with the pubs if you plan to travel any distance.

Policeman George Frost saw Edward Spendler at the back gate to his house, the King’s Head Inn, at 1am. He asked him if he could go in and have a look to check all was well. He found two men both very drunk and one lying on a sofa. Spendler told the officer that he didn’t wish to harbour the men and he hadn’t taken any money from them. Spendler was found guilty but as it was his first offence he received a mitigated fine of £1 and 10s expenses. Ipswich Journal, March 1870**
