Horse & Groom, Kinnerton Street - circa 1950
Patrick McGoohan, as the SECRET AGENT MAN from the mid-1960s TV show, runs across Kinnerton Street towards Motcomb Street and the Turk's Head. The large dark rectangular sign of the Horse & Groom can be seen above the last of the three cars parked along the left side of the road. Tho one cannot actually read the lettering on the sign, one can make out the number of letters in each of the main words. All of what is shown in the photo was razed around 1970.
