MVWI - April Meeting - The Remarkable Story of the Toby Jug Pub

Please RSVP to this event

Acclaimed local author and editor of The Good Life, Tim Harrison will be talking to us about the subject of his new book ‘Hello Tolworth, I'm Ziggy: The life and times of the Toby Jug pub, and the launch of David Bowie's most famous character.’

For nearly 70 years the Toby Jug pub was a landmark in Tolworth, with some of the biggest names in British music playing there. 

Tim will tell us about its surprising history.
