Back to British Pubs

It's known that the British people has been drinking ale since the Bronce Age. But it was first with the Roman Road networks that the Inn began to appear. At that time it was called tabernae, and it was the place where travellers could get refreshment. After the fall of the Romano-British empire, the alehouses were established. These alehouses formed a fine meetingplace for the locals to meet, gossip and arrange mutal help within their communities. This is the beginning of the modern pub. The alehouses became so commonplace, that in 965, King Edgar decided that there shouldn't be more than one alehouse for each village. [|(1)]
