Islington index
Historical London public houses, Taverns, Inns, Beer Houses and Hotels.
The early name is the Copenhagen House, with the address being the Copenhagen House tavern, Maiden lane, Battle bridge in 1827 and Islington Fields in 1839. Long demolished, this pub was trading by at least the late 1930s, York Road having been renamed York Way. It was rebuilt in 1965 about a quarter of a mile away at 283 Camden Road, N7, becoming The Latin Corner around the late 2000s and then briefly Aracataca. It closed in 2013 and is now in use as commercial premises. ***
