I wonder how much he earned at the first part of the 20th century.

I have a question re the Dukes Head.

How much of an hotel as opposed to a boarding house was it?

George Jarrett Moy married in 1886 at St Nicholas Chapel.
George was a `Post Boy` of the Duke`s Head.
WHY would he be resident in an hotel?

Thanks

Mitch

[EWW]

Most big hotels have staff rooms. In the Dukes some of them were behind the round window you can see in the front elevation.
I think they still are Mitch. I should think in the olden days if you lived in they could work you all the longer.
And in the roof like that they would be freezing in the winter and boiling in summer, not something the guests want.

[mitch in notts]

Thanks EWW.
Suppose he could have been some sort of messenger FOR the Dukes` Head rather than an actual Post Office `Post Boy`

Mitch

[EWW]

Yes Mitch you have to remember that the Dukes was a Posting House.
This link is quite interesting.

Anyone know when the lamp standard was taken down?

Another view of the Globe Hotel crca 1905.
I think the publisher may have done a bit of photo editing with the hotel signage when compared with other pics on this subject?

My girl friend and I was a waitress in the 50s we lived in one of the little rooms on top it was a long walk to our room after having a few beers on a sat night Ah Ah.
