A Full English Breakfast
Fox & Anchor, Smithfield
Fox and Anchor public house has stood on Charterhouse Street (formerly Charterhouse Lane) for more than two centuries. The pub’s present, four-storey incarnation was built in 1897–9.
The architect was Lambeth-born Latham A Withall, who trained and practised in Australia before returning to Britain in the late 1880s. The Art Noveau tiling and grotesques that grace the pub’s facade were the work of William J Neatby, who at that time was head of the architectural department at Doulton and Company of Lambeth, where all the ceramics were produced.
