A preserved sign from the now demolished Castle Tavern on Lawrence Lane, near Gresham Street, London.
Date: 17th Century
The earliest record of the Castle Tavern is the year 1832, when the publican was a George Burry.
In 1902, the landlord, Ed Bennett was evidently not a good landlord, as he was fined £1 and 7s 6d in expenses for breaches of the Public Health Act and permitting a smoke nuisance.
Beyond that little seems to be known about this pub, other than it had a very fine pub sign, which was incorporated into the wall of the modern office block that replaced a rather ugly 1960s predecessor in 2002.
