William Cubitt (1791 - 1863) was an engineering contractor and politician responsible for the reclaiming and development of Cubitt Town in the Isle of Dogs where this pub is located. Built in 1864, the interior was given the Truman treatment in the 1930s with wood panelling similar to the Golden Heart in Spitalfields, the Rose & Crown in Stoke Newington and the Hope & Anchor in Hammersmith. Recently the pub has closed and windows have been boarded up.
