There's a lot of memorabilia to add interest and character, particularly sporting memorabilia, including rugby, cricket & football.

   Brian & Pat Ford    

Brian and Pat Ford have been Landlords of The Prince of Wales pub since 1997, having previously been landlords at the Queens Head in Weybridge for 4 years. Pat's delicious home cooking has earned a well-deserved reputation for quality and attractive presentation. Brian is well-known as a colourful character whose notoriety came to the attention of London's Capital Radio audience in a wind-up by DJ Steve Penk.

Brian and Pat have a great sense of humour, as can be observed around the pub by the memorabilia and other displays which include a poem about Brian (at his expense) and a framed beer advert "Beer - helping ugly people have sex since 1862". One of the Real Ales is even called 'Old Tosser' with a picture of Brian on the Hand Pump! Old Tosser - Pump at Prince of Wales Pub Weybridge with picture of landlord Brian Ford!

As you can probably guess from the memorabilia in the pub, Brian is passionate about sport, particularly rugby and golf. The Walton and Weybridge Golf Society is based at The Prince of Wales (13 meetings a year) and Brian is the current Chairman.

   History & Folklore    

The eldest son of the reigning monarch of Great Britain is traditionally invested with the title of Prince of Wales. This tradition began in 1301, when King Edward I of England, having completed the Norman conquest of Wales gave the title to his heir, Prince Edward (later King Edward II of England).

Anderson Road Weybridge 1911

We don't exactly know why the pub (built in 1854) is called The Prince of Wales, but we do know that in 1790 the Duke of York, Frederick Augustus of Hanover, 2nd son of George III, took up residence in Oatlands. After marriage ceremonies in 1791 in Berlin and London, the 28 year old Duke brought his new 24 year old Duchess the daughter of the King of Prussia to Oatlands. He was the 'Grand Old Duke of York, who had ten thousand men' from the Children's nursery rhyme.
