This is a Young's pub, and gets its name from the fact that the building was at one time the local post office. Young's brewery at Wandsworth was closed some years ago, and the brewing interests were merged with those of Charles Wells at Bedford, whose brewery now brews for both brands. Young's pubs, which total over 200, are now a separate company from the brewing concern, though they have a financial share in it. Image Image
