Rendham White Horse Pub & village shop

The White Horse Pub used to be owned by a brewery in Ipswich, and the name of the former brewery can just be seen on the l.h side of the building. There was once an entrance to an off-license on that side. My uncle wired up a coloured lighting system outside the pub in the early 1960's when he worked as an electrician at G.A Hubbard of Saxmundham.
The building to the left is the former village shop, which I believe, was run by Tyrells. Their speciality was sliced boiled ham. I also remember all the many jars of sweets that they had on sale. When Tyrells left, another owner changed the shop to a MACE stores, and also incorporated a post office in the shop (this had previously been in a cottage just behind the viewer). The shop no longer exists, and is a private dwelling.
