About the Pub

Busy 1895 pub facing St. Mary’s Hospital, from which much trade is drawn. The name derives not from the famous ruins in Yorkshire but from springs in the area and former ownership of the land by Westminster Abbey. There is a large lounge bar with raised, railed-in seating at one end and an ornamental fireplace at the other. Can be noisy. Was Tavistock’s between 1986 and 1995 before reverting to its original, 1823, name. Restaurant and function room on the first floor.

After a pint or two this pub is handily placed for a visit to the Alexander Fleming Laboratory Museum in the hospital opposite; Fleming discovered penicillin here in 1928.
