Mile End Pubs history
By 1983, this pub was trading as the Horn of Plenty, but I have a note that it was “formerly called the Cornucopia”. It had been rebuilt at some point between 1968 and 1974 as part of the development of the Eric Estate and might have been renamed at this time. In more recent years, the pub was renamed several more times, and closed in 2010 for conversion to restaurant use. ** This is named as the Horn of Plenty in the 1911 census return. *
