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.

  • The City of London
    18 B I 19 The City of London The City is London’s most ancient quarter and a global fi nancial centre that has been closely connected with international trade and commerce for 2,000 years. The tightly built ‘Square Mile’ of small streets, crooked alleys, squares, courts, churches, civic buildings, o ces and high rises stretches from the Royal Courts of Justice in the Strand (Temple Bar) to Aldgate in the east and from the Thames in the south to City Road in the north. ondon fi rst became a port of wealth and prominence under Roman occupation ( 43–410). In the 2nd century, the L TOWER OF Romans built a towering defence wall around LONDON the City, 20ft high and 8ft wide, as impressive HOUSES OF as Hadrian’s Wall in the North. It formed the PARLIAMENT foundations for the medieval city wall that was restored by King Alfred in the 9th century and remained standing until the 18th and 19th cen- turies. The legacy of this wall is that it loosely defi nes the perimeters of the City to this day and signifi cant remains may still be seen at Tower Hill, the Barbican and on the modern road called London Wall. After the Norman Conquest of 1066, William the Conqueror built three mighty for- tresses in the City to subdue its citizens (the Tower, o cially outside the City’s limits, is the only one that remains). However, William also recognised the City’s value to the wealth of the country and approved a London charter which upheld previous Saxon rights and privileges.
