Another in Philippa’s occasional series about the artisan and tradespeople of Stamford. The town is almost as well known for its pubs as its churches. Philippa looks at the variety of hospitality venues - pubs, beerhouses, inns and hotels that have existed in the town over time. She also investigates who ran them, how they operated, and what they did.
