Southampton pub history index
Originally named Burton Ale House and holding a licence since before 1869, the pubs name changed to the Burton Tavern in the 1890’s. Welsh’s Hyde Abbey Brewery of Winchester were the owners in the early 1900’s before it was owned by Cooper’s Brewery and then by Watney’s Brewery. It closed and was demolished when the area was redeveloped in the 1950’s. Its licence along with that of The Fireman’s Arms in Chandos Street were surrendered on 5th April 1957 to allow the Yacht Tavern in South East Road to be granted one. *
