Prince Albert, Pub?

Coquet · #1 16-01-2018, 08:37 PM

Was looking through this Northumberland Directory (1855?) on the book archive website:

"History, topography, and directory of Northumberland, &c."

It has a Prince Albert (Ralph Graham) listed in "Hotels and Public Houses" for Amble.
Anyone familiar with that one?

This rang bell all of a sudden: Janwhin already put this 1855 list up in 2012:

[But no extra info on Graham.]

This must have been the name (for a time) of the building that stood on the site of the Garage on Albert Street, next to the Blue Bell? (or was that the Railway hotel??)

Anyway. Map of the end of Bede Street / Albert Street (Dole office building not yet built)

Three buildings immediately north of the Blue Bell site?:
