There is a pub in Louth in Lincolnshire called “My Father’s Moustache”
The Case is Altered is in Warwickshire.
There’s a pub in Belfast called the “Hedgehog and Bucket”.
Most of these are pretty unusual, but ‘The Crooked Billet’ is quite a common pub name in England.
Hmmmm. I guess it’s a sign of how English I am that only a couple of these seem bizarre.

There’s a pub near me called ‘The Who’d Have Thought It Inn’
The Case is Altered sounds very mysterious. Like a Sherlock Holmes story.
There’s a pub near my parent’s house called “The Soldier Dick” and whenever we drove passed it my dad would say…how much for? LOL

The Kremin was supposed to have got its name because the pub’s jukebox used to pick up Radio Moscow!
The Swan with Two Necks, a corruption of the term “The Swan with Two Nicks”.
