The Gun was situated at 125 Lupus Street. This pub has now been demolished and replaced by flats.

One of my earliest memories is of the Gun being demolished. It had the lovely brown or reddish brown tiled walls. I vividly remember one workman smashing the beautiful frosted windows with etched writing. It was replaced by the rent office for the Churchill Garden’s Estate. I think it was called the Gun because Colt had a small firearms factory on Grosvenor Road, sited just a little way past what is now called The Grosvenor Pub (known since it was built as the Spread Eagle). The factory might have been replaced on the site by the old London Hydraulic Company, which I remember well as a kid.
