Kings Arms Corston Somerset

[Irene Ralph7]

My g/g/grandfather Robert Taplin, was Innkeeper of the Kings Arms, Corston, Somerset in the 1800`s. Does anyone have information on this inn, also what became of it? I can`t find any details of it any where. I only know Robert was the innkeeper through census information. Thankyou. Irene

Have you checked in Trade Directories? There are 28 Somerset directories covering the period from about 1840 to 1920 online and searchable at http://www.historicaldirectories.org/

Thankyou Hughar, for your information on the Historical Directories. I just found Robert Taplins name on a village directory, giving his name and Kings Arms Inn. That is all I could find. Thankyou for your help.
