What was the pub with the spiral staircase next to Williams and Glyn's bank?

2 storey pub in Whitgift Centre, was initially ok for a lunchtime drink when working at Lunar House but went downhill relatively quickly.

When working in Central Croydon and living in Waddon, the Dog and Bull was very convenient for a stop on the walk home

Possibly by sight but not by name. Usually just popped in briefly and didn’t socialise.

It was impossible not to socialise in the Dog and Bull in those days. People would always roll up to you and talk at you. Usually old blokes.

As I was relatively young, I took mum’s advice and didn’t talk to strange men
