Croydon: The 'Tree House'
Image: © Dr Neil Clifton Taken: 24 Dec 2014
According to Peter Walker's excellent 'Croydon and its Pubs', this establishment was originally opened as the 'Anchor' in 1644, though of course this is not the original building. It was later renamed as the 'Blue Anchor', but after several changes of names it has now settled down as the 'Tree House'. Local unkind jibes suggest that it might only be occupied by monkeys.
