The Peacock Inn Newhaven |
|
1920s Here is an old view of the entrance to the Peacock Hotel, now the Peacock Inn, at Newhaven. A note on the back of the photo indicates that the photo was taken in the 1920s. The old stone on the left-hand side of the 1920s photo can also be seen in these recent views: The building in the large 1920s photo above has now been converted to private housing. |

2008 The part of the old hotel that has now become the Peacock Inn lies immediately to the west of the building in the 1920s photo. In the 1920s, the hotel entrance was on the south side of the building. The north side faced directly onto the Firth of Forth. Now, a short Newhaven by- pass has been built around the north side of the old hotel, and land has been reclaimed further north. The entrance to Peacock Inn is now on the north side of the building. |

Mrs Main and Mrs Clark "Interestingly a late cousin of my late father had relatives (Clark and Main) who owned the Peacock Inn at some stage. I see those names on the side of the building in the photo above. My relative wrote the following in the 1980s":
