The Three Horse Shoes was situated on Sheepgate, closing about 1962. I remember going in long before I should have. It was the last ale-house (no spirits licence) in Lincolnshire. The pub was demolished around 1980 and the site is now a private house. There was a blacksmiths shop next door, run by Mr Britton, who was gassed in the First World War. He and Mrs Britton also lived at the pub. There was no bar - only some rooms with benches. The last licensee, was a landlady, Mrs Rose Taylor, who went down to the cellar and came back with a jug of beer - straight from the barrel. I think it was a Batemans pub.
