There's been a business located at this gateway to a cobbled alleyway since 1730 - see the red sign outside and etched writing over the bar - but as a pub it had its heyday in the mid 20th century, when George Orwell was a regular and Michael Powell filmed here. Both men get a decorative look-in, the pub's 101 minutes of movie fame marked by an Italian poster (1960's L'Occhio che uccide, aka Peeping Tom).

Today, this is the lunchtime and post-work haunt of undemanding chaps laying into the Everard's Beacon, George Gale Seafarers or Fuller's Honey Dew, perhaps accompanying a cheese-and-ham toastie (£1.50) or prefacing a shift upstairs from the cosy street-level bar to the pie room. There, the venison-and-mushroom or beef-and-Guinness staples can be followed by treacle sponge or rhubarb crumble.
