    I wrote to Sam Smiths donkey's years ago asking for a list of their tied houses but got a reply stating that they were just a small Yorkshire brewery. I think they may have suggested some areas in Yorkshire.
    The one that interests me the most is the Fleet Street Olde Cheshire Cheese as on a visit to Marston's brewery when they were the only pub in London selling Pedigree I was told they sent more Pedigree there than to all of their Southern outlets which I believe were mainly in the Winchester area.

    The three shares in Samuel Smith (Southern) are held by HRW Smith, OGW Smith and Rochdale & Manor.

    The 250,00 shares in Rochdale & Manor are held by, low and behold, HRW Smith (250) and Samuel Smith Old Brewery (Tadcaster) (249,750).

    That's a nice circle!

    You need to add The Duke of York at Victoria, just reopened as a Sam's house after a very long closure.
    On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement

    Superb tip-off, many thanks!

    My co-Challengee has acquired a puppy so finishing the Challenge is postponed until Spring next year whilst the little chap is house (and pub) trained. Not many left to do...(have a backlog of reviews to knock-out though!)

    Heard some excuses in my time, but it appears to be true.

    Not sure how you've managed to do pubs in October 2020 given we are only in March from your date list..... Also not sure why you'd want to do all SS pubs they sell ming in a glass, but that's just my opinion.

    I suspect that 31/10/2020 was a typo for 31/01/2020.
