RAILWAY HOTEL, Crown Street, Cockermouth
-
Description
The 3-storey black & white building. There were two railways in Cockermouth, the C&WR which opened on 28th April 1847 and the CK&PR which opened on 4th November 1864. They used separate stations. The RAILWAY HOTEL was alongside the earlier line and also dates from 1847. The CAMRA Good Beer Guide for 1977 described it as "A drinking man's pub." There can be no finer accolade than that. The hotel closed around 1980 and was converted into flats. -
