Struggling with the ID of one of these, maybe two.
I think first is at Potter before the fire, then – hmmm? Is it the (bygone) Eagle at Neatishead? Third, Horning and then Geldeston and Reedham before returning to Horning. The last one is throwing me. Certainly never been in it, or probably even past it. Presumably it's on, or near the Waveney but it's not in Beccles. Aldeby maybe – but I don't think there were any pubs going there in my drinking life. Burgh St. Peter?
Please put me out of my misery, someone.

Greetings All!
I'm Stewart. Norfolk born and bred – well, Gorleston!
Been in Derbyshire for the last four decades and now trying to reconnect with the playground of my youth.
Also interested in the lost pubs of Broadland – and elsewhere.

A fire. Why am I not surprised?
Strangely it wasn't that long ago that I posted this:- https://www.bygoneboozers.co.uk/post/__madness

Don't know if this pic has been posted before.
I found it on: bygoneboozers@aol.com
There are quite a few old Broads pubs listed (with pics) as well as from other counties.
I asked permission to post the pic and link and Stewart, the chap who owns the website, says he will add some more when he gets the time; including the Wherry at Langley and the Swan at Gt Yarmouth.
The pic below is dated 1910.
Greetings all.
I'm the guilty party! The actual post can be found here.
There's also one on the Stracey Arms and the Berney Arms. There may be other Broadland ones, but I can't remember offhand
Oh! Some might remember the Griffin at Thorpe St. Andrew. It suffered a little arson attack the other day.

My old hometown! Well, Gorleston actually. Miss the Broadlands having been in Derbyshire for the last forty-odd years. Still, living in a Peak District village isn't so bad – especially in the current circumstances.
If anyone fancies a look around the site it's at www.bygoneboozers.co.uk
Regards to all,

This one? It's the former Old Bear on the A515 between Ashbourne and Buxton – a one-time coaching inn.
