This was the Lord Palmerston pub until about 5 years ago. That was a working class and down at heel pub now revamped and gentrified to serve more hipster patrons. A sign of the encroaching gentrification in N15. At least the building was not demolished for some hideous block of flats and retains the lovely glazed tiling along the bottom of the walls. Also one can see below the near window the tile embossed THB. This stood for Truman Hanbury Buxton, the brewery in East London that built this elegant pub, I think, in the inter war years.
