Robin Hood Hotel (Kingston-upon-Thames).

By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-01-13. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-10-20.

The Robin Hood Hotel a.k.a. the Robin Hood Inn was located on the corner of Robin Hood Lane and Kingston Vale (A308). The earliest reference I have is a 6" O.S. map of the area published in 1874 (see Maps section below).Template:PnItemQry
