Send us a textWe’re back in the East End of London, kicking off a multi-episode visit to multi-cultural Hackney. We kick things off with a crash course in Hackney’s rebellious roots, from Roman roads to Quakers, Huguenots, and anarchists with a flair for protest. If London has a punk Borough, this is it. Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious of The Sex Pistols met here at Hackney Technical College. Then we hit the pubs for our Hackney Pub Crawl. First stop: The Kenton - a pub with a moose head, Scandi vibes, and a backstory featuring beer-slinging legend Ben Kenton (no, he wasn’t a knight, but he should have been).Next: The Chesham Arms, a cornerstone of activism in Hackney. A pub so beloved that locals straight-up fought off developers like it was an episode of EastEnders meets Gladiator. Spoiler alert: the pub won.Then: The Cock Tavern, where you can find pickled egg royalty, beard-friendly vibes, and the birthplace of Howling Hops microbrewery. Oh, and don’t forget those CAMRA awards.We close at The Dolphin, the late-night legend that danced too close to the flame. Once a karaoke-fueled chaos magnet, now a chill spot with a Grade II listing and a slightly less wild crowd.Show Maphttps://historiclondonpubcast.com/show-map/ReferencesWikipediaHackneyRadical History:  https://hackneyhistory.wordpress.com/timeline/craftbeernomads Hackney Craft Beer Article: https://craftbeernomads.com/craft-beer-in-hackney-london-england/The Kentonhttps://camra.org.uk/pubs/kenton-homerton-156200https://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk/Article/2019/05/29/My-Pub-the-Kenton-Hackney-east-London/https://abetterbeerblog427.com/2018/06/17/who-was-ben-kenton-and-how-good-was-his-porter/https://pubwiki.co.uk/LondonPubs//Hackney/KentonArms.shtmlThe Chesham Armshttps://www.hackneycitizen.co.uk/2013/04/06/chesham-arms-pub-community-asset/https://www.hackneycitizen.co.uk/2018/03/27/chesham-arms-hackney-pub-heritage-status/https://www.hackneygazette.co.uk/news/25305026.telegraph-names-ten-london-pubs-among-best-england/https://camra.org.uk/pubs/chesham-arms-homerton-156176https://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/25098/The Cock Tavernhttps://pubwiki.co.uk/LondonPubs/Hackney/Cock.shtmlhttps://camra.org.uk/pubs/cock-tavern-hackney-156035https://www.hackneycitizWebsite: https://historiclondonpubcast.com E-mail: [email protected]
