The Green Dragon & Ponty Tavern
CornMarket
Pontefract

I only noticed the plaque on the 'Dragons' door, as my wife rang me, & I stood there a moment

The Ponty Tavern adjoins it

It seems like it's a trade organisation (see description) https://atom.aim25.com/index.php/na...l Licensed Victuallers Association was formed

I'll never understand why the current owners of the Ponty Tavern decided that it made sense to paint it battleship grey rather than clean up the beautiful green glazed bricks on the ground floor.
