Great contributions to the effort. I can’t thank you all enough. I am especially grateful for the photos. Does anyone have others?

I had been researching the Battle of Britain, and came across Kath Preston’s book ‘The Inn of the Few,” about her time as the publican of the White Hart in Brasted and the Biggin Hill pilots. That sparked my interest so I started going back to the other accounts I read and marking down pub names and researching them. While researching the Ferry Inn mentioned in Bob Stanford Tuck’s “Fly for Your Life” I came across the 2004 thread. I recorded and verified as many of those pubs as I could and added them to my research in the Google Map. That thread being old to add onto, I created a new one.

In addition to the Dolphin in Chi, we (No 1, Tangmere) often used The Unicorn. Shall never forget the night (in 1945, when with CFE) I overstayed with a girl friend and found myself locked in!! Managed to break out over the back yard wall. Could have been embarrassing?

And when at Wittering in late ’40, we often went down to The Haycock – and a Stamford pub whose name I can’t recall.

Thanks Tim, I’ll add those to the map. I had tentatively marked the “Dolphin and Anchor” in Chichester as the “Dolphin” I had read about. Is this the same one you remember?

Great story about the Unicorn!

Thanks for the addition. Added it to the map.

I think that is Betty’s that Alan was mentioning above. It was frequented by Bomber Command aircrew and is now a tea room/cafe.
