Cheltenham Pubs Through Time

is a unique and nostalgic collection of old and new images, illustrating the evolution and changing use of the town's pubs. The author contrasts archive photographs with colour images taken in the 1970s, a time that the majority of Cheltenham pubs were owned by Whitbread. The story is brought right up to date with the advent of the pubco's, and the sad demise of once popular pubs like the Greyhound.
