Built in 1863, the Prince Alfred is a prince amongst pubs. The spectacular façade is as striking as it is unusual, its bowed etched glass is rare and delicate.

When Norway was invaded by German forces in 1940, King Haakon VII escaped to Britain and a Norwegian exile government was set up in London.
