TOM CRUDD’S BAR

 Named after Thomas Spence, the famous boot boy at the Unicorn.  He was given the nickname of Crudd, meaning ugly, due to his enormously long nose and chin.

Tom Crudd

 

“He usually introduced himself with a pair of slippers in one hand in the other. The company in general were so diverted with his odd appearance that they would frequently give him a piece of money on condition that he held it between his nose and chin. He was always ready to comply with this request, it being no less satisfactory to himself than entertaining to them."
