The George, Borough High Street, is the last remaining galleried coaching inn in London. There were once many such inns in the area, catering for travellers on their way south from the City, or heading north and pausing before crossing London Bridge. They included the famous Tabard, where Chaucer's pilgrims met, which used to stand just south of the George. By Dickens' times, the number of such inns had been reduced to half a dozen. The current George Inn building dates from the 17th century, but there has apparently been an inn on the site since medieval times. And it serves a good pint. The property is owned by the National Trust, leased to a tenant.
