Sitting within the Crystal Palace triangle, this is an unchanging, locals' pub (ex-Charrington). It has a single-room bar, which is more spacious than it looks thanks to a rear extension and windows along one side. A range of jugs occupies a shelf above the bar. The patio with seating is at the front, on the road. The TV will show sports and there is occasional live music.

Historic Interest

The original pub dated from 1830. The present building was constructed 1938.
