“I like them all obviously but that is my favourite.” The Oxford Guild guide also liked to take his tourists to historical pubs all over the city, when they were allowed to be open. He said: “I like to the tourists to pubs. “The Lamb and Flag, it is such a nice pub with a very interesting layout, but it’s so important historically, association with The Inklings; that group mattered to the Lamb and Flag as well as the Eagle and Child.” On Thursday it was announced that the Lamb and Flag will close due to the tough trading conditions of the pandemic.
