St George Martyr pub history index
The pub was present by 1710 and remains open (2007). The address varies in earlier census, including 1 Queens Square in 1891 and 1911, and 15 Cosmo Place in 1899 ** The modern address in 2018 is at 1 Queen square, Bloomsbury, London WC1N 3AR and is still open for business. As it was a beer house, most trade directories only list this in the beer retailers section once we have found the correct address to look for which is generally at 15 Cosmo place. The 1911 census suggests there are three families at this property, and I am guessing it is the occupants over different floors.
