| 1886 | 1929 | BOADICEA | |
Until 1885 this was the STAR VAULTS.
The name Boadicea (or, more correctly, 'Boudicca') is a reference to the Queen of the Iceni, the British Queen from c60-61.
We first see this name used in August 1886 when Archer Joseph Hudson Seymour of the Boadicea files for bankruptcy. The name, however, remained until the end.
In 1929 the license was surrendered with that of the Fountain, Cross Cheaping, and transferred to the Burnt Post, Kenpas Highway. | |||
