Crown and Treaty

Crown and Treaty

The Crown and Treaty is a pub in Uxbridge west London, England, where Charles I and his Parliamentary opponents during the English Civil War held negotiations (the Treaty of Uxbridge) between 30 January and 22 February 1645 [1].

Description

The Crown and Treaty was built in the early sixteenth century as Place House. It was two thirds larger than it is today, but was reduced in size when Oxford Road was widened to accompany the coaching traffic in the eighteenth century, and was converted into a coaching inn.

The interior panelling

The wood panelling was sold in 1924 to decorate an office in the Empire State Building; however, as a gift to Elizabeth II during her coronation in 1953 the panelling was reinstalled in the inn.

The pub is currently a local live music venue[2].
