Windermere, Grade II listed pub in Wembley, United Kingdom
Description
The Windermere is a Grade II listed pub in Wembley featuring three separate bar areas connected by inner porches that create distinct drinking spaces. Each section displays original wooden counters, wall panelling, and fireplaces that reveal the craftsmanship of its 1930s construction.
History
The building opened in 1938 during London's rapid suburban expansion, when residential areas were spreading outward from the city center. Its listing in 2003 recognized both its architectural quality and its role in documenting that era of urban growth.
Culture
The pub preserves traditional British drinking culture through its original layout and craft details that reflect how locals have gathered for decades. Visitors experience the character of a classic neighborhood establishment where community life naturally unfolds.
Practical
The pub sits next to South Kenton Station, making it easy to reach by public transport, and features wheelchair access throughout the building. It opens daily with extended hours on weekends, so visitors can drop by at various times to suit their schedule.
Did you know?
The three-part division of the interior has remained untouched since the 1930s, a rare example of how pubs were originally arranged during that period. This layout lets visitors experience firsthand the spatial organization of British gathering places from that era.
