TQ3479 : Sailors Return pub (site of) Rotherhithe Street, London, SE16
taken 14 years ago, near to Stepney, Tower Hamlets, England
Sailors Return pub (site of) Rotherhithe Street, London, SE16
It stood at the south east junction with Cathay Street, I believe it was number 38, from 1757 until 1831. It was also known as the 'Happy Returns' but fell foul of the authorities as they would not renew the licence due to music being played and the belief it was being used as a brothel. The site is now the car park for the Angel pub opposite. Building on the right is Cathay House and behind the trees is Regina Point of the Canada Estate.
