St Dunstan in West pub history Index
ANDERTON'S HOTEL, 164, Fleet Street. This house was given, in 1405, to
the Goldsmiths' Company, under the title of " The Horn in the Hoop.” Machyn
mentions it in 1557, and the register of St. Dunstan 1597, has an entry:“Raphe
was slained at the Horne, buryed.” In the reign of James the First, it is
described as being between the Red Lion, over against Serjeant's Inn, and
Three Legged Alley, over against Whitefriars.
The first
reference I have of it as Anderton’s is in 1811 when listed as a coffee house
and tavern.
It was rebuilt in 1880 and was demolished in 1939. **

Andertons Hotel, Fleet street is clearly marked on the 1893 Ordnance Survey,
alongside Johnsons court and opposite what is then Pleydel court, earlier called
Lombard street.
