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.

Beccles Prince of Wales

Closed 1919

opened about 1861

5 Smallgate

grid reference TM 421 905

The map location and photo assume that the street numbering scheme is unchanged.

A Smith, in his paper "Inns of Beccles in 1929" (kindly supplied by Daryl Ling) tells us the closure date and that the pub was "in Smallgate where the post office now stands". Unfortunately, no maps showing either have been found so far.

An earlier Prince of Wales used to stand in Saltgate, on the site of the cinema.
