THREE KINGS Thomas Street
The 17th century Three Kings Inn was one of many old coaching inns in the vicinity of Redcliff Street which up until the 1930’s was the main road through Bristol from the midlands. It once boasted stabling for 100 horses and in later years was the goods receiving warehouse of the Midland Railway, it is pictured here in 1906 a few years before the building was demolished. The pub sign at the left of this picture belongs to the Court Sampson and the drawing of the Three Kings shown below is from a card posted in Bristol, April 5th 1902.
