The Heroes

A Memory of Waterlooville.

This is the original Heroes pub (double-fronted building on left of photo), named after the soldiers returning from the battle of Waterloo who set up camp at Waterloo having marched from Portsmouth docks on their way to London. It was near the junction with Hambledon Road and this photo is looking north. When the pub was knocked down, its replacement was build about 300 yards further north. Must have been round about 1960?

Meryl.......The Pub in your picture is the Bricklayer's Arms.
The Hero's is 300 yds up the road on the left beyond the church tower.... top of Stakes Hill Rd.
Melvyn......The pub in the picture is in fact the Wellington not the Bricklayer's Arms
