The Spread Eagle was at this address from at least 1864. The Morling family were landlords here up until 1887. Other landlord names such as Henry Reed, E.G. Cowley, George Titchener, Alfred Idel and Harold Victor Osbourne.
The earliest record I could find for this pub, then known as the Eastern Tavern was 1848. Reed Ockenden was the landlord.
Landlord names include J. Measor from the 1870s, and T.N. Snelling and Henry Bridger during the 20s and 30s.
On the corner of Cobden Road. This was a public house from at least 1881.
Originally numbered as 144 Elm Grove, this changed in c.1884 when the houses in Elm Grove were renumbered probably due to new buildings being erected.
