Notes: Old directory entries suggest it always had an entrance on both sides (on Tooley St and Duke St, later Duke St Hill), but this isn't clear on Ordnance Survey maps, and presumably the pub was enlarged by the 1930s as the address officially changes to Duke St Hill at this point. This is closed to the site of the modern "Number 1 Bar" (at 1 Duke St Hill, see separate entry).
