There are three handpumps with two in operation on 13/06/25.

The origins of this building can be traced back to the 19th century; the first record being a public house in 1889 when it was christened the Junction Arms. During the Second World War this building was damaged by the bombing, however only suffered minor damage to the exterior structure.

In 1964 the Junction Arms became the Drum and Monkey, the tenant instigated the story behind this unusual name, at the time owning an ornament depicting a drum and monkey (odd!!).

Now a warm and friendly pub with one bar, wooden panels and an old wooden surround open fireplace used in winter beneath the TV screen.The pub entrances are very traditional with curtains to be drawn in winter. Note the very large mirror to the right of the bar. A varied food offering (see their website for menus), nice gardens/outside drinking space at front and back and lots of reclaimed church furniture.

Note - it is about a 15 minute walk from Upper Holloway station on the overground.
