Salmon and Ball, Grade II listed pub in Bethnal Green, United Kingdom.
The Salmon and Ball, located at 502 Bethnal Green Road, features a green glossy exterior with traditional architectural elements from the mid-19th century.
In 1769, two weavers faced public execution outside the pub following a controversial trial where false evidence led to their wrongful conviction.
The establishment received one of the first music licenses in London's East End in 1840 and maintained Victorian gas-lamps through the 1970s.
The pub stands next to Bethnal Green tube station and participates in the Best Bar None scheme for excellence in hospitality management.
During the 1950s, the upper floors of the pub hosted boxing matches, while the 1960s saw performances by go-go dancers.
