George & Devonshire

Large two-bar pub with an attractive Georgian red-brick frontage, only a few yards from the brewery. Called the George until 1823, when it was renamed to avoid confusion with the George IV in Chiswick High Road. One of the brewery’s oldest tied houses, having been bought in 1701, along with two cottages, for £70. Dick Turpin is said to have drunk here before his ride to York. This Grade II-listed pub just off the Hogarth roundabout, with its flyover on the A4, parades its rich local history within the Old Chiswick area on a board on the front. Relatively insulated from the traffic noise, it has recently (autumn 2015) been refurbished to a high standard.
