Timeline
Undated
Closed Pubs: The Jack Hotel and Jack Tap were situated on Northbrook Street, Newbury. Street number 22 / HER 21–22 and PubWiki's 24 indexing refer to the same hotel site (now Marks & Spencer) — treat as one place, not three. No open or close year is given on that page.
Undated
Modern site address researched as 22 Northbrook Street, Newbury RG14 1DJ (Marks & Spencer). Aligns with Closed Pubs' Northbrook Street / M&S note and HER MWB19876 for 21–22 Northbrook Street.
Undated
West Berkshire HER MWB19876: 21–22 Northbrook Street, Newbury — unlisted early-20th-century shop building formerly the site of the Jack of Newbury hotel. Corroborates Closed Pubs' Marks & Spencer successor on Northbrook Street. Distinct from No.25 Castle Tavern.
Undated
Closed Pubs: the site is now used by Marks & Spencer. Undated successor note — HER places the present building at 1935; do not invent an M&S opening year from Closed Pubs alone.
West Berkshire HER MWB19876 cites historical pub research indicating a hotel with this name in operation from 1796 (Berkshire directory) to 1931 (Kelly's directory). Treat 1796 as presence evidence (matches PubWiki), not a proven opening year.
Jack of Newbury recorded in 1796 (Berkshire Directory) — PubWiki secondary transcription. Same Northbrook Street hotel later indexed as 24 (PubWiki) / 21–22 (HER) / modern 22 (M&S). Treat as existence evidence, not an opening date.
probable evidence
Known as Jack Hotel from 1887 according to PubWiki. Preserve Jack of Newbury as the earlier identity/name.
probable evidence
PubWiki says the venue was known as Jack Hotel from 1887. Keep 1847 under the earlier identity.
probable evidence
Keep the source occupation exactly as 'Retailer of Beer'; do not upgrade this to licensed victualler.
probable evidence
PubWiki: known as the Jack Hotel from 1887 (Kelly's / directory evidence). Preserve Jack of Newbury as the earlier identity/name and Jack Hotel / Jack Tap as aliases for the same Northbrook Street place.
PubWiki states the venue was known as Jack Hotel from 1887. Preserve Jack of Newbury as a former-name alias/history relationship.
probable evidence
PubWiki states the venue was known as Jack Hotel from 1887. Address history is complex, so retain provenance and review place matching.
probable evidence
Jack Hotel at Northbrook Street recorded in PubWiki's Newbury 1911 census summary (Lee Barber). Address appears as 22 Northbrook Road in that summary — same Jack Hotel place as 21–22 / 24 Northbrook Street. Treat as a 1911 existence observation; do not infer an opening date.
probable evidence
PubWiki says the venue was known as Jack Hotel from 1887. Preserve Jack of Newbury as a former-name relationship.
probable evidence
No 1924 row added because the reviewed source output did not explicitly show one.
probable evidence
West Berkshire HER MWB19876: hotel operation evidenced to 1931 (Kelly's directory). Year-level end of hotel use — Closed Pubs does not give a close year. Do not invent a month or day.
PubWiki says the venue was known as Jack Hotel from 1887. Preserve Jack of Newbury as a former-name relationship.
probable evidence
West Berkshire HER MWB19876: the present 21–22 Northbrook Street shop building was built in 1935 on the former Jack of Newbury hotel site. Treat as rebuild / demolition of the hotel fabric after the 1931 hotel end — not a second closure year for trading.
