Dating back to the early 1800s the building was originally a public house called the Garth's Arms. It changed names a number of times over the next 200 years from the Duke of Windsor to Maguire’s Tavern, Gaston's and Maguire's before spending a period of time as a night club more recently. It was also once the home of the Little Avenham Brewery.

Following significant renovation it reopened on 8th March 2019 as a free house labelling itself, "Preston's latest bohemian bar! Decadence and corruption for everybody!" with DJs, live music and acts on weekly. Modern in appearance with walls stripped back to brickwork it is open-plan on multiple levels and there is a small outdoor terrace for smokers. Cask ale is not currently served.
