Peter Street (St. Peter's Street)

 

Travelling towards Charlton from the High Street the premises would have been on your left. Luke Stephens served in 1841 but by 1877 there were joint owners. Cottenham and Flavins Kingsford. They attempted that year to transfer the licence to Clarendon, (probably 26 Clarendon Place). They were prevented from doing so and this pub was closed the following year anyway when rowdiness and prostitution were alleged. It does not seem to have opened again. Tenants were shy of this one.
