Eagle & Child pubs

Slightly OT... But if you know they serve real ale - all the better...

I'm trying to draw up a complete list of pubs in the UK past or present with the name "Eagle & Child" and also those which have had that name shortened to "the Eagle" or changed to be "The Eagle & ?" (something else). I'm dabbling into researching their histories.

I already know about both the Oxford and Cambridge pubs of that name - probably the most famous two of tourist interest.

Any help appreciated in naming the locations of others of that name - much appreciated.

There used to be an "Eagle and Child" in Whitwell, Herts. It closed about 3 years ago and is now a private house. Ray White

I know of one former Eagle and Child in Leigh, Lancs, which is now called Edisons. Almost certainly no real ale.

There's an Eagle & Child near Prestatyn (North East Wales) but I can't be more specific as I've not been there for a while.

When I lived in Essex, there was an Eagle & Child at Shenfield - I assume it's still there?
