Perched on the river wall, this is one of the oldest pubs in Rotherhithe and sits in front of the remains of Edward III’s mansion. Its exact history is difficult to trace as there have been so many pubs with this name in the area, given its proximity to the river.
Although a pub has been present on this site since at least the early 19th century the current pub was built in the early 20th century.
Interestingly, this pub is one of just a few pubs in England to have been known by two names at the same time. Up until 1985 a sign on one side of the pub called it ‘The Great Eastern’ (after a steamship built on the Isle of Dogs by Isambard Kingdom Brunel), while on the other side it was imply called ‘The Ship.’
