The outdoor veranda and sitting areas at this Twickenham gem are simply stunning, helping make this one of the prettiest spots in west London. Whether you're seeking a countryside haven or a bustling city inn, a family friendly eatery or great craft beer, The Good Pub Guide will never steer you wrong. Interestingly, the building sits in between the barber shop owned by Sweeney Todd and the pie shop owned by his mistress Mrs Lovett — a grizzly detail for an otherwise resplendent London pub. The Commercial Tavern seems occasionally to have forgotten its opening hours, has a pool table in awful nick and serves quite piercingly dreadful cocktails upstairs — but to its regulars, it is magnificent. Parts of this loveable boozer might be over years old, but the pub still has so much to offer visitors in People laugh and dance and sing until the light slips away and the Angel locks its doors.

  • The CAMRA Regional Inventory for London Pub Interiors of Special Historic Interest Using the Regional Inventory
    C THE CAMPAIGN FOR REAL ALE The CAMRA Regional Inventory for London Pub Interiors of Special Historic Interest Using the Regional Inventory The information The Regional Inventory listings are found on pages 13–47, where the entries are arranged alphabetically by postal districts and, within these, by pub names. The exceptions are outer London districts which are listed towards the end. Key Listed status Statutory listing: whether a pub building is statutorily listed or not is spelled out, together with the grade at which it is listed LPA Local planning authority: giving the name of the London borough responsible for local planning and listed building matters ✩ National Inventory: pubs which are also on CAMRA’s National Inventory of Pub interiors of Outstanding Historic Interest Public transport London is well served by public transport and few of the pubs listed are far from a bus stop, Underground or rail station. The choice is often considerable and users will have no di≤culty in easily reaching almost every pub with the aid of a street map and a transport guide. A few cautionary words The sole concern of this Regional Inventory is with the internal historic fabric of pubs – not with qualities like their atmosphere, friendliness or availability of real ale that are featured in other CAMRA pub guides. Many Regional Inventory pubs are rich in these qualities too, of course, and most of them, but by no means all, serve real ale. But inclusion in this booklet is for a pub’s physical attributes only, and is not to be construed as a recommendation in any other sense.

  • Travel 8 London City Guide 8 ISLINGTON and the NORTH
    Travel 8 London, the North, Islington Travel 8 leads to the north of London where farmers, workers, soldiers and ordinary people lived. Tourist usually are interested in monuments, but… monuments don’t say anything about ordinary people. Monuments are similar everywhere, a copy of each other indeed, because they are the wish of the power. Power been the same everywhere in this world. There are no monuments dedicated to ordinary people. Heredity of ordinary people was cancelled on the course of the years. Then, how to find out about life of ordinary people. The only way is to visit the remains, if they can be found. With the industrialisation, 1850 on, people moved from the north of UK to find a job in London. They settled where the trains stopped, in Islington, or in the north and east of London. Travel 8 will lead you to these places, where workers and industries were. Travel London 8, ISLINGTON and the NORTH Visiting the north of London is possible to imagine how London was at the time of the 1850’s first industrialisation. Here are beautiful places, with many, many interesting things to discover. Travel 8 starts in Islington, where you reach it with the Tube at Angel Underground Station. Outside the station turn on the right, towards Islington Town. Here you find the monument to Hugh Myddelton, the man that in 1613 had the idea to create an aqueduct for selling fresh water to Londoners. Water came only from the North, (this was the reason why the Romains founded London on the north shore of the Thames).
