Above photo showing a plaque, kindly sent by John Matthews, 2026. The plaque says the following:- "Black Horse and Harrow." "The name Catford comes from the place where cattle crossed the Rover Ravensbourne in Saxon times. Catford was historically part of Kent until 1889, when it was absorbed into the new London County Council.

The original pub existed on this site from at least 1700, although the present building dates from 1897 and is Catfords oldest pub. Although the full name was The Black Horse & Harrow, it often seems to have been referred to simply as "The Black Horse.""
