Correction; You must have your headlights on at all times. Just me being pedantic!

WHAT?!

 

[AES]

WHAT?!

Watt Tyler led "The Peasants Revolt". (He stopped over in Dartford, Kent, where I was born, on his way to London to demonstrate to the King about peasants poor wages. The pub where he stayed is now called "The Watt Tyler" - that's how I remember. Don't know if it's still there now though).

A pedant (for the English language) would say that it's not "What Tyler" but "Which Tyler". Geddit?

At last, one I understood!

Close AES - it's actually "The Wat Tyler" (one T) but as you say in Dartford - one of their oldest pubs and yes, extant.
