36 St Johns Hill Battersea
Originally the "Windsor Castle." A 1920's replacement of an earlier building with mock tudor timber and plaster exterior just up the hill from Clapham Junction, reopened in November 2013 after refurbishment, with the name changed from the "Windsor Castle." As the pub is adjacent to Clapham Junction the large garden bar is known as Platform 18.
The borough dates from the London Government Act of 1899, and includes the greater part of the original ecclesiastical parish of St. Mary Battersea. Under the same Act Penge, formerly a hamlet of Battersea, was constituted a separate urban district...the curious anomalies of local government led to Penge's formation as a separate urban district and its transfer to the county of Kent in 1900. This would join London with neighbouring parishes in 1965. Penge was a wooded district, over which the tenants of Battersea Manor had common of pasture.
