Listed building details:
Public house, 1825-6. Rendered brick, roof hidden behind parapet. Ground floor occupied by timber pub frontage, largely C20. Floor-plan two rooms deep, and three bays wide, three storeys high. Frontage a symmetrical composition, the upper floors with twelve-light glazing bar sashes in moulded architrave surrounds, save for the central second-floor window which is blind and inscribed 'THE WILTON ARMS 1826'. Balcony to first floor on heavy timber brackets with C20 ironwork. Pub frontage with doors to either side of small paned four-bay glazed front, with late C20 fascia and lamp. The interior retains some slender cast-iron columns and cornices, also an early or mid-C19 grate in late C20 surround. Included as an unusual, dated example of a surviving 1820s public house. Most London pubs were rebuilt or dramatically elaborated in the 1890s.
