Lambeth pub history index
The southern approach to Waterloo Bridge was carried on a series of brick arches with a gradual descent to the York Road and Stamford Street level. The result was that the houses on the bridge approach had a very extensive cellarage, and the Feathers Tavern on the east side was really two public houses one above the other, the lower one being in Commercial Road ** The 1862 license transfer refers to the Feathers, Waterloo bridge. The address is 177 Upper Ground by 1944, following street renaming. It is also commonly given as 1 Waterloo Road, as well as Wellington Terrace, 205 Waterloo Road in 1856, and as 25 Wellington Terrace, Waterloo Road in 1841 and earlier (prior to street renumbering). In the 1825 Victuallers Recognizances and in Sun Fire Office insurance records, prior to the construction of Waterloo Road and bridge, it is at Cupers Bridge, Narrow Wall. *
