Surveyed
A site has held a pub here since the 16th century, though the current building dates from a 1944 rebuild after wartime bomb damage in this Canonbury backstreet. George Orwell was a regular during the 1940s, and the pub's coat of arms nods to his essay on the ideal English pub, The Moon Under Water. It keeps cask ales and serves simple, home-cooked food from a small kitchen most days.
