St Dunstan in the East pub history index
Between 1851 and 1855 this pub was trading as the Custom House Stores. There is a mix of similarly named Custom House's in Lower Thames Street until these are unravelled properly. The pub closed in around 1961 and the licence was transferred to the newly-built Mermaid at 64 Queen Victoria Street, EC4. The Mermaid has now been renamed the Sea Horse. Meanwhile the old Three Kingdoms is now demolished. **
