Wylam's Inns

Although there were few shops in Wylam in 1891, the census that year reveals there was no shortage of Inns. Four of the six Innkeepers, were also doing other jobs. At the Stephenson's Arms, Michael Lynch was described as a 'beerhousekeeper and general dealer', at the Fox and Hounds, Robert Johnson was also a miner, John Phillips at the Bird Inn was a grocer, and at the Ship Inn, Edward Hawkins also worked as a bootmaker as well as the Innkeeper.
