A Memory of Chipping Ongar.

My family used to run this pub. First, a Jane Tanner in the 19th century and then my great grandfather, Charlie Green in the 1920s. He also ran The Kings Head in Ongar for many years, leaving in the 1940s.

My father William called bill worked as a barman in the early fifties, I remember the stables at the back and that it was once a meeting place for royals fighting Cromwell in the 1600s. I last drank in the bar xmas 1968, we had a great sing song of xmas carols. Village life back then was when you knew most people by name.
