At the time, flannels would have been made exclusively of carded wool or worsted yarn. The great demand for this kind of cloth led to the creation of flannelettes, made of napped cotton. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica the word appeared in the 1880s. Although the texture was similar, at equivalent prices, flannelettes were usually of better quality than flannels.

I always liked this one, and also how the pub has mirrored the style in their own sign, chopped slightly at the bottom of your photo.
The pub's list seems as random as Larn's, with the mash potato between the bottled beer and the bloody mary. A good dish to sponge up one drink before moving on to the next one maybe?
