A 1970s colour photo of the Crown & Anchor public house on the corner of Neal Street and Shelton Street in Covent Garden during the latter half of the 20th century. The scene from 1976 highlights the pub’s traditional red-brick Victorian architecture, with a distinctive white corner sign reading “Crown and Anchor 1904” set against the upper masonry. The ground floor exterior is painted a deep racing green with a bold red fascia board, while the windows feature gold “Watneys” lettering and delicate white lace curtains. A prominent curved corner window and a bright red entrance door characterise this historic establishment, which has served the local community and market workers for over a century. Located in the heart of the Seven Dials area, the building remains a popular landmark and still operates as a public house today.
