Title: Laboring Boys Pub
Post by: mafsef on Wednesday 28 March 07 17:53 BST (UK)
I'm trying to find info re the Laboring Boys pub located on Worton Road, Isleworth at Riverside Walk. At one time I believe it was owned, or run, by a Wiseman (circa 1940/50) who was a cousin on my Mothers side.
Can anyone assist me.

Street View on all views from 2008 shows an vacant plot and a new build office block at the junction where the pub was. Too many web directories are not kept up to date, for example british-pubs.com gives a phone number. Closedpubs.co.uk have it in their list but with no information.

There is some background at http://pubshistory.com/Middlesex/Isleworth/LabouringBoys.shtml (http://pubshistory.com/Middlesex/Isleworth/LabouringBoys.shtml)

Information about records available for the Isleworth Brewery (taken over by Watneys in 1924) at http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/rd/2a193820-4983-493b-9b3a-1da0aace40a6 (http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/rd/2a193820-4983-493b-9b3a-1da0aace40a6)
