Full Record - Samson Public House (PRN: 8746)

PRN8746
Site or location nameSamson Public House
SummaryWilliam Hill
DescriptionPublic houses and breweries in the Carlisle, Gretna and Annan area were taken over by the State in 1916 to control drunkenness among construction and production workers at the new armament factories at Gretna, Eastriggs and Longtown. Four of the five breweries were closed with pubs closed or remodelled as restaurants to discourage stand-up drinking. The State Management Scheme ran the Carlisle pubs until the 1970s. The pub-restaurant format and new pub designs by Harry Redfern in the post-war period influenced the large inter-war road houses and estate pubs. Carlisle Kid's description on Geograph Situated on the corner of Alexander Street and London Road (which was the only way to be certain of the location), The Samson was named after a locomotive on the adjacent Newcastle & Carlisle Railway. Opened in 1891 and replacing an earlier Samson on the same site, the pub was acquired by the State Management Scheme in August 1916 and closed in 1917. It has been much altered down the years and is virtually unrecognisable from photographs of the pub taken circa 1901.
