Queen's Head, Brook Green
The Queen's Head is a pub at 13 Brook Green, Hammersmith, London W6.
It was built in 1796, originally as two houses (13 and 14), built for two brothers as their out of town villas. A later resident at no 14 was the Marquis of Queensbury. The houses became the Queen's Head pub in the early 1900s.[1]
The highwayman Dick Turpin was a regular visitor.[2]
