That’s from a couple of years ago. We’ve lost a fair few lately  |  |

Ipswich only has 58 pubs all told, I can't believe half of them are within half a mile of the ground
I can get to about 14 easily enough,but not 29 |  | | |

Off the top of my head the only ones I’d be 100% confident are within half a mile are*:
Curve Bar, Degeros, K Bar, Thomas Wolsey, Judes, Mannings, Arcade Tavern, Falcon, Revs, NYE, Sin, Station Hotel, Penta, Punch & Judy
And then possibly but suspect some over 1/2 a mile:
Silver Star, Isaacs, Waterfront, Wiff Waff, Salutation, Shamrock, Old Rep, Halberd, Nelson, Gardeners Arms, Woolpack, Arboretum, Brewers, Cult
So that’s 27 but several which I’m sure are well outside 1/2 a mile, what have I forgotten?
*haven’t really been in town much in the last year and a half, so some of these may have been covided! |  |

The Greyhound and The Dove? Again, pushing it perhaps. | | | |

The Greyhound would be in the just over half a mile group.
The Plough & The Swan (assuming both are currently open) are missing too.
Ipswich remains pretty decent by virtue of the ground being on the edge of the town centre. [Post edited 2 Aug 2021 14:10]

What's the one just off Norwich Road, the Brewers Arms is it?
Things like Inkerman probably are within reach also, particularly as the crow flies?
Maybe the Earl Kitchener too? [Post edited 2 Aug 2021 14:25]

Actually meant the Greyhound rather than Gardeners Arms, got the two muddled. But yes think that’s over 1/2 mile
Good shout on Plough and The Swan. Cock and Pye too now I think of it
EDIT: and Three Wise Monkeys, and Cosy Club - I guess we do have a fair few even if lots are sh*t! [Post edited 2 Aug 2021 14:15]

Yeah I did list Brewers. Might be right on Inkerman - I did try and map a couple (slow work day) but gave up as could only do it by route rather than as the crow flies which I assume is how it’s been measured. Either way does seem a rather liberal estimation of half a mile! | |

Don't forget depending on membership type you can possibly include Silent Street Labour Club and Central Con Club.
Someone took me to a social club near the valley a few years ago on their membership, also got signed into one in Newcastle in 90s.
Plough? |  |

Portman Road covers a lot of ground in itself though. It must be three or four hundred yards if you take the diagonal from Planet Blue to the car park gates on Constantine Road. Where's this half mile measured from, the centre spot on the pitch? |  | | |

Their list included a house in Ranelagh Road that once had an off licence. For scale, from Sir Alf, AS THE CROW FLIES, The Mermaid (if you can call it a pub), Cricketers and Spread Eagle are half a mile. |  | | |

I assume some may have changed their set up through lockdown. |  |

If they are being loose with what they call a pub, I note they refer to 'places to drink' at one point, then there are probably one or two hotel bars that they include, The PentaHotel must be within the limit. | |

Punch and Judy is closed. Harvester probably counted as well, that’s also gone. | |

An article in the Star last year, recalling the 1945 demob had a woman relating that her husband got off at the Station and stopped off for a drink at every pub before the Cornhill. He'd had 8 pints by the time he got there - and that wouldn't have included the Sporting Farmer nor the Curve, neither of which replaced a previous pub on that site, I think.
