  Recorded in Tithe Map and Award	18 Jun 1839	Old Queen Inn, Avon, Sopley, Hampshire, England Plot 706A of Tithe Map http://www.avontyrrellestate.com/pub The earliest record of a pub on the site of the New Queen is 1725. At one time it was known as the Mermaid perhaps because of its proximity to the River Avon – for many years the landlord kept a punt tied up at the end of the garden! Its present name probably derives from a combination of the accession of Queen Victoria to the throne in 1837 and the fact that until about 1840 there was an inn called the Old Queen on the corner of London Lane a hundred yards away.   [1]
