The Spring Tavern

A Memory of Crewe.

Does any one remember The Spring Tavern?
I have a oil painting that was given to my Grandfather Reuben Pickup, I believe that the picture once hung on the wall of The Spring Tavern, and that it was given to my Grandfather in payment for work.
The picture is signed, W. R. Gayton after Lawson Wood and dated 1923, It is pained in the style almost of a cartoon, showing the Spring Tavern anglers, dressed in stone age costume.

My father Ivor Pickup brought it with him when he came to live in New Zealand in 1970 and I have inherited it.
