The White Hart was present by 1844 when the publican was William Wakelin.  After closure the White Hart became part of the Great House Hotel & Restaurant.
Our crew it is stalwart, our crew it is smart But needeth refreshment at noon Let's land at the lawn of the cheery White Hart Now gay with the glamour of June! For here can we lunch to the music of trees In sight of the swift river running Off-cuts of cold beef and a prime Cheddar Cheese And a tankard of bitter at Sonning.
Lays Of A Lazy Minstrel, J. Ashby-Sterry, Punch 7th July 1883.

Name Dates Comments Gill Learner 1966/1970 My husband Trevor was a regular and sometimes I and our son accompanied him. I remember a waiter called Hubert (quite old-seeming then) and an African Grey called Nickel (Silver) who loved stuffed olives!
