The Robin Hood pub in Chingford c1910 (Image: Gary Stone)
About 113 years separate these pictures of the Robin Hood pub near Chingford.
Built on the Epping New Road in c1865, the Robin Hood pub near Chingford once sat on a notorious crossroad black spot for road accidents.
As a result, a roundabout was constructed and the High Beach Road was moved further south in 1936. The old road can still be traced in the forest today.
