Bishopsgate index
At 169 Bishopsgate Street without in 1851 and up to 1915
This became a tavern in the early 17th century in the former house of Sir Paul Pindar. This building survived until its demolition in November 1890. This is the building in the photo from Frith. The frontage of the original pub can still be seen as it is preserved in the Victoria & Albert Museum. The pub was rebuilt as shown in the photograph, which was taken in about 1989. This version of the pub traded for a while as the Kings Arms, but had reverted to the name Sir Paul Pindar by 1983.
This second building was in turn demolished in 1990 and a third version of the pub opened on 2 August 1991. This is a photo of the pub as it appears now, taken in November 2006. It takes up part of the ground floor of an office block, built on the original site. **
