    The Grapes, Limehouse. The Roebuck, Hampton Hill. The Goat, St Albans. Hare in the Hill, Bristol.
    Not claiming any of my three Fat Cats, or the Lazy Toad in Shoreham-by-Sea.
    Pontefract Castle, Marylebone. Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem Artichoke, Nottingham. Barley Mow, Shepperton. John Barleycorn, Goring. The Lamb Inn, Eastbourne.
    In hardship, one might stretch to the Wise Old Owl, Kingsfold; The Nightingale, Hitchin; or The (tough as old) Boot, St Albans.

    Along the Herefordshire /Powys border somewhere is a pub called" The Baron Of Beef," a pub of the same name is located in Cambridge. I understand it pertains to what would be a saddle if it were lamb.
    On the outskirts of Hereford we have the "Bunch of Carrots ". At Painscastle, Powys there is "The Roast Ox."
    We have plenty of animal names but unless they are at least butchered and skinned I will leave them.
    After eating all that you will need "the Cottage of Content " of which there are a few about.

    Artichokes just ain't worth the trouble, as I would imagine a stuffed Nightingale would'nt either. All bone ,no meat.

    There are at least 5 Owl & Pussycat pubs listed. Fricasse of Owl was apparently a popular Louisina dish and as for eating Pussy, I'll stop at the Koreans as an example.
