    Black Boy

    Historic 400-year-old pub called The Black Boy is set to be renamed in wake of Black Lives Matter protests and will be rebranded as The Restoration in nod to King Charles II....


    Ye gods....you cannot delete history.....this is getting absurd.

    Are you allowed to change anything that existed a few hundred years ago without "changing history"?

    I'm pretty sure that less than 100 years ago, people with your level of intelligence may have been subjected to eugenics.

    Thankfully, we don't live in those times anymore... but maybe we shouldn't change history, eh?

    It does appear to be a bit pathetic, changing the name after 400 yrs. Nobody knows for sure, how it got its name, but hey, lets change it anyway. Its the “In” thing to do.
    If the locals are anything like TLG, they'll boycott it now. He doesn't like owners messing about with tradition.

    It's been called that for closer to 200 years according to the article Maurice alluded to. Got it's name from Charles II's nickname that his mother gave him, apparently.

    20+ pubs in the UK with "Black Boy" in its name. I went to "The Black Boy" in Hull after a game a few years ago and thought "what the f**k?! Surely you can't have a pub called that!" Weirdest thing was that the doorman was a black guy

    Anyway... times have changed... unfortunately, it seems, for a lot of people who would rather we were still neanderthals. I mean, the invention of fire would be "changing history" for those who were happy being cold and eating raw meat etc.

    When Franklin's became the Goscombe I was relatively happy but now it's the Treganna I'm really vexed.
