The World's End, Grade II listed pub in Chelsea, England
The World's End is a Grade II listed pub at 459 King's Road featuring distinctive red brick and stone detailing across its three-story Victorian building. The structure serves as both a working pub and event venue with distinct interior and exterior spaces adapted for different uses.
The building was constructed in 1897, replacing earlier structures from the 1700s that had already marked this spot on London's maps. This succession of buildings at the same location reflects the site's enduring importance along King's Road.
The name reflects how this location once marked the edge of London for travelers, serving as a stopping point before continuing into unknown territory beyond the city. This history shaped how locals understood the area and continues to influence the pub's identity today.
The venue sits close to Fulham Broadway tube station, making it straightforward to reach by public transport from across the city. For events, you can accommodate around 70 seated guests or up to 200 standing, allowing flexible arrangements based on your needs.
The building received its Grade II listed status in 2006, recognizing its architectural importance to the area. This protection came more than a century after its original construction, showing how the site gained significance over time.
