RAYNES PARK
 Raynes Park Tavern




 Long before the days of a family welcome many pubs were curtained
 off from the outside world and 'lock-ins' were still a 'thing'. Today The
 Raynes Park Tavern, as it's now called, is a friendly, local, thriving pub
 directly opposite the railway station, with  football on multiple screens
 and is the post-match home of many amateur league teams on a Satur-
 day and Sunday. Back when this photo was taken the Raynes Park was...
 well...let's just say that it was 'an institution'.  For any RPV fans or visi-
 tors who fancy a pint after the game, get a slice of Raynes Park heritage
 at this infamous boozer. And there are no police vans parked outside on a
 Friday and Saturday night anymore!!
