NOTE:Ahh Hammersmith, to all intents and purposes a gigantic traffic island with a bland shopping centre at its heart that is connected to the outside world via a series of piss-stained subways. Several of London's most congested roads converge here creating a maelstrom of motoring insanity. What few people realise is that only a few minutes walk away from all this is an entirely different Hammersmith. The Blue Anchor occupies an enviable position on one of the finest stretches of the Thames. Georgian Londoners clearly agreed and a pub was first licensed here in 1722. It is claimed that Gustav Holst was inspired to write his Hammersmith Suite in this very pub. The pub's interior oozes historical charm and smells pleasantly of woodsmoke. On fine days you can sit outside on the riverside terrace and watch people messing about in boats under the elegant structure of Hammersmith Bridge.
