Feathers, 36 Tudor Street / 22 Temple Street, Whitefriars EC4

Whitefriars index

Ex-Watney Combe Reid. Rebuilt in the late 19th century and again in 1974. Recently (2018) rebranded as a branch of Jamie's wine bars. *** Noted as Temple Rest, 36 Tudor street in the 1911 census; this makes sense as it is referred to as Temple Restaurant between 1899 and 1944, for example.
