    • The Story

      The Five Bells public house was situated on Streatham High Road in London during the 19th century, demolished at some point between 1880 & 1884. Named so after the 5 bells of St Leonards church (The current Five bells pub sits much closer to Streatham Hill station now).

      This public house was located at the top of Bedford Row where the main traffic lights now cross you over to St Leonards church. I have created this image of the original Five bells pub with a little of 2022 added. The parakeets only came to South London in the 1970's when captive birds escaped and began to breed. They are a daily vision in Streatham now. The Nitrous oxide canisters (laughing gas) outside the pub are also a daily vision in 2022.
