The interior of the Temple Bar in Walworth Road has my grandfather,
Henry James ROBINS, in hat, with my father, Harry ROBINS. Dad was
born 1900, & I estimate circa 1919 for this photograph. My father
was manager there for about 3 years, but the hotel trade was not for
him. At 30 he became a London City Missionary - quite a change. **
My ROBINS family were in the hotel trade in the Walworth Road, Old
Kent Road area, 1900 to 1940s. My father was born at The
Dun Cow,
1900, and by the 1901 census they were at the Temple Bar, which was
in the family until about the end of World War 2. Also in their
hands 1930s was the Rock. **
