Historic Inns of England
註釋Long before the advent of the motorway and the automobile, between the Elizabethan and the Victorian eras, England's main travel arteries were the great coaching routes that connected towns and villages. Travellers on the highway, both commercial and private, needed hospitality and a place to sleep and coaching inns served their needs. Many of these old inns still survive - both rural and urban, large and small, medieval and Georgian - and represent the apex of England's living pub heritage.
