Streatham pub index
Earlier entries are listed as the Railway Tavern, Ellison Road until at least 1919. The pub is named as the Railway Tavern on intersecting Ellison Road in Post Office directories of 1921 and earlier, while in the same directories the address at 2 Greyhound Lane is listed as a "wine & spirit merchant" (with the same proprietor as the pub), so the frontage to Greyhound Lane may have been the entrance to the off licence part of the premises at this time. *
