[I have recently been researching pubs run by my family in Victorian Times. The Abbey Tavern, Kensal Road had lost its license before my great grandfather Charles Cozens Taylor spent a fruitless year around 1871-1872 trying to get it back. He moved here, to The Duke of York, 93 York Street, Commercial Road. ***]
