The Three Cups, Church Street, Harwich (1907)
The Three Cups pub closed in 1995 and is now a private residence, originally built circa 1500 and it was probably a purpose-built inn and traded as a public house, hotel, livery stables and inn. The building we see today is timber framed but you would hardly know that from the road as the visible elevations have been bricked up and the front rendered to form the impressive Georgian facade.The end of the property on the church side shows off the red Flemish-bond brickwork of the period but the whole building is missing its former upper story which was removed in 1949 following a fire.
The Three Cups was listed Grade II by English Heritage in 1972.

No 7, Harwich, Church Street, (1910) looking North West towards the Harbour.
This popular late Edwardian view, has attracted many photographers and publishers over the years, with Church Street, probably taking the record for the most photographed street in around the peninsula, matched perhaps only by Marine Parade in Dovercourt.
Postcards over the years have captured, St Nicholas Church, marching bands, parades, carnivals, public houses and of course the once bustling shopping area, a few of which are illustrated here.
