1977 Comment in Hallmark by Ted Janes. "The present licensee, Les and Joan Cullimore and sons Keith and Paul will be pleased to know that an American friend having eaten at many places in London and parts of the south of England, had his best meal and restored his faith in English cooking at 'The Old Plow Inn' recently.

Ted Janes P.S.

My interest in the inn probably stemmed from the unusual fact that my great, great grandfather and both my grandfathers were at one time licensees.   It was in the Janes family for 56 years.   My maternal grandparents, Mr & Mrs Pocock also had the pub for a couple of years in the early 1920s.

In the popular radio series of the 20s 'In Town Tonight', I can just recall another licensee, Major Pat O'Becket talking about his (at that time) unusual hobby of match box collecting.
