Location: The Crockers Folly is located on Aberdeen Place which is in the heart of the prestigious St Johns Wood and is situated within short walking distance to St Johns Wood underground (Jubilee Line) and the shops and restaurants of the High Street. It is also just a short walk away from Maida Vale which benefits from all major bus routes into and out of Central London. Description & History: The Property is a Grade II listed former public house which benefits from basement. ground, first, second and thirds floors. The Crockers Folly is one of the finest and most extravagant late-Victorian pubs left in London. It was built as the Crown Hotel in 1898 by Frank Crocker who had heard that a new rail terminal was to be built here. He spared no expense; every wall, window and ceiling is decorated in sumptuous style. It is divided into three bars; a sports bar complete with large screen TV, games machines, table football and a darts board; the elaborate stucco walls and ceilings, featuring frolicking cherubs, have been painted a rather unsubtle loud orange, but it does have fine pillars and nice wood panelling behind the bar. The right hand bar, which once featured live music and is now a dining room, is airy and elegant, the ceiling in particular worth a look. But the finest and most comfortable bar is the main central one. It features a large coloured marble hooded fireplace, fine tile and glasswork, a grand wooden bar, big comfy sofas and chairs and a richly decorated painted plaster ceiling. Back in the 1960s the pub was used in a scene from the film Georgy Girl.
