Visited 28/05/26.

No cask. Two handpumps both with glasses over the handles, unclear as to what the offering would have been. Keg offering of Doom Bar, Guinness, Murphy's Irish Stout, Moretti, Inch's, Cruz, Amstel, Heineken, Brixton Reliance Pale Ale and their Low Voltage APA.

Quite small corner venue with an unusual dark green colour scheme (walls and furniture) and then a black ceiling with a mixture of candle bulb suspended lights plus ceiling fitted wooden shapes with pink back lighting! The wooden bar counter is against the rear wall in quite a narrow L shaped venue with a snug hosting an upright piano tucked round the rear of the bar counter and with its own serving hatch. Some tall stool seating dotted along the bar counter but seating mainly via green studded leather banquettes around the perimeter serving regular tables with the same style regular chairs the other side thereof and then a tall table over in the front corner away from the entrance, this being the only bare bricked part of the walls here and near the seemingly non-operational fire grate. A single screen was switched off on my visit, and a poppy soundtrack was playing. Some picnic bench seating outside on the pavement and the most popular choice, so much so that I was the only punter inside on my early evening visit.

This pub has been open since at least 1891 when the licenced victualler was Thomas Masters; what association the Earls Ferrers had/has with the area I know not.
The place has been subject to a recent renovation from February 2026, having closed in November 2024; certainly, the exterior with its gaudy turquoise paint scheme looks less upmarket than before (see photos).
With the plate glass entrance door doing the place no favours, internally, the place is modern bare boarded, white or turquoise paint then bare brick; in short, a bit predictable, less so the TV masquerading as an open fire. The ceiling features some weird lighting devices with ‘cocktail bar’ purple ambient lighting, the sort of thing young women like. The only heritage I could spy was some paint encrusted cornicing then a simple bar back with bevelled mirrors. Furniture is modern conventional and at the time of my Saturday 9.00pm visit, customers were few, young and mouthy.
Drinks amounted to a fizzocracy, with some pseudo craft, many taps covered with a pint glass to indicate their dormancy. Thereafter, there were two pumps, one unclipped (pint glass shielding the handle) then one for Pride, similarly ensnared, so it was a half of Guinness, £3.50, served by a barmaid who took nearly ten minutes to change the barrel; a few minutes after taking my seat she told me that they would stop serving at 10.00pm, which is a bit lame for a Saturday.
I found this place to be rather dispiriting, the more so both for not serving cask and the Saturday closing time; the Railway is the one to beat when in SW16.

Looks quite a large corner back street pub but is a surprisingly small one room bar with an alcove to the side.Busy with diners.Tired décor and looks like the pool table has gone.About 4 cask ales on inc Dartmoor -jail ale,Blonde Witch and Wandle.I tried a bottled beer from new London brewery Inkspot that was okay.
