History

Established in 1848.

The Windmill pub, which has stood here on Clapham Common since at least 1665, owes it’s name to a windmill which stood nearby. The Miller Thomas Crenshaw is noted in Parish records in 1665 as also being an alehouse keeper, but milling must have become less important and beer seeling more so, and by 1789 The Windmill Inn is noted as ‘a very genteel and good accustomed house’

Unsurprisingly it also became a staging post for coaches, although Windmill Lane was still a rural track until 1840. In 1848 Young’s Brewery bought the freehold for The Windmill Inn and many years later, and with a few extra bricks and a couple of paint jobs, we now have the pleasure of welcoming you to the beautiful, 42 bedroom boutique hotel, pub and restaurant.
