Barley Corn, 23 Gower Place WC1

St Pancras index

Seemingly long closed as a pub, this has recently reopened as a UCL student bar called The Huntley (2013). * It is at or near the junction with Little Gower place in 1924, and Gower street in 1930; which confirms its position on maps. It is a shop by 1942, and a cafe in 1936.
