I’ve been looking into my ancestry, amazing what you find out. Anyone out there that knows about the Cakebread family please get in touch. Will be visiting Spitalfields and visiting this amazing pub very soon. Great photos! from Rebecca in Somerset.

My Dad was born and raised at Strand On The Green and most of his family lived in the cluster of streets off Thames Road, immediately adjacent to the pub. It was a true local and my Grandad’s favourite; in fact, my Dad only recently told me that, knowing he was dying in the late 1960s, Grandad would spend endless hours with his brother in law on the towpath by the pub – and doubtless managed a few libations along the way. Halcion days.

The Dove is next door to the school I went to – I know it well and it is still recognisable from the exterior shot. It’s strange it is said to be at Chiswick when it is most definitely in Hammersmith with a great view over the suspension bridge that everybody knows from the Boat Race.

Thank you. More please? (Yes, Oliver)

I’ve drunk in several, & know of one or two others.
