The Tabard, Chiswick

The Tabard (previously known as the Tabard Hotel) is a Grade II* listed pub in Bedford Park, Chiswick, London. It was built in 1880 by the architect Norman Shaw as part of Jonathan Carr's development of Bedford Park. Notable features, along with its original street facade, include the swing sign which was painted by T M Rooke. The original arts and craft tiling by William de Morgan and the fireplaces with surrounds of tiles created by Walter Crane (an early example of Art Nouveau) are in view in the front entrance and the right hand bar. These tiles are a fine example of the movement's style that their counterparts are held by the British Museum.
