The George, Cubbitt Town
Image: © Des Blenkinsopp Taken: 22 May 2018
A remnant of the old docklands near Crossharbour DLR station. How often old pubs survive when mere houses have all been demolished. The George has lost a lot of its garish signboards since this previous image from 2014 Image but has also lost the date 1864 previously on the corner. A close look above the George picture shows an old trademark sign of Watney, Coombe and Reid's Brewery and there is a Watney's lantern on the corner.
