Previously called the "Prince of Coburg" and changed from that name in 1918 in honour of the French militaru commaner with the same name. The pub was closed in 1938 and the license transferred to the newly built "Duke of Kent."

In the 1960s and 70s it housed Cullen's Pet Supplies and the Design and Colour wallpaper shop, and up to at least 2022 as Michaels's Bookshop, reopening again after the pandemic.
