The Blue Posts was situated at 6 Tottenham Court Road, on the corner with Hanway Street. This pub was supposedly the last stop to a for condemned prisoners to enjoy a final tipple enroute from Marylebone to Marble Arch for hanging. A one storey building after being bombed during the blitz. It has now been demolished to make way for a parade of shops.
