Hi, I don't know if anyone can help, I designed the camberwell borough council website and am looking for any old photos of Honor Oak Nursery, Council Workmen & their memories, etc to add to the site, also any old photos or cine film of surrounding areas, especially East Dulwich where I was born, grew up & worked, my Mum worked at Everitt Vero Co Ltd at the bottom of Crystal Palace Road, my Dad was a parks Foreman on the council, his Driver was Len Ellis, he made superb cine films of council workers in action, would love to see those films now, he used to bring them to my house when I was a kid to show my Mum & Dad,I attended Heber Road School & Thomas Calton Secondary, any help anyone can give to add to the website would be fantastic, many thanks to computedshorty who has added lots of memories

    • At it's peak I recall 16 Furkin pubs, all brewing their own.    The first pub was the Goose, followed by the Ferret, the wonderful Pheonix, Fox and one other, not necessarily in that order, when I discovered them. I did all 16 on public transport in one day with a group many years ago, if Guinness had a record this would be one, as everyone else would hire a minibus. Reverting to Wiki, it maxed out with 19 home brew pubs, and many more not brewing before the end: chain was established in 1979 by David Bruce as Bruce's Brewery, the Firkin Brewery grew as a chain of mostly brewpubs offering cask ale. It was acquired by Midsummer Leisure in 1988, Stakis Leisure in 1990 and then by Allied Domecq in 1991; by 1995 the chain had 44 pubs, 19 of which brewed beer on site.[1] In 1999, Punch Taverns bought the entire chain and the rights to the Firkin brand,[2] and then sold 110 of the pubs to Bass, leaving 60 Firkin pubs under Punch ownership.[3] The brewery side of the chain was wound up, and in March 2001 Punch announced that the Firkin brand was to be discontinued.[4]
