In recent years, scores of pubs across Southampton have shut down.

They were all focal points for their communities during their time, and the loss of the traditional boozer is often lamented.

Thanks to Dave Goddard and Jim Brown, we are continuing our series of images of old pubs of Southampton.

The pair are authors of the book Southampton's Lost Pubs, which was published in 2014.

Here in the gallery above, we have pubs from A to E that are no longer with us in the city.

It follows on from the first part, although some of them pubs may be duplicated.

In the coming weeks, we will continue the series.

The Daily Echo is going back through the archives to piece together a record of Southampton's pubs which have been lost.

Some were sold because the owners' could get more money for housing, others because landlords could no longer afford the expensive rents and costs of running a pub, while others may have simply seen their trade dry up.

A number of readers have also sent in their photos - these will be collated into a gallery soon, too.
