Duke of Cumberland

The Duke of Cumberland is a historic public house at 235 New King's Road in Fulham, London. Built in 1892 to designs by the architect Robert J Cruwys, the building is Grade II listed, recognising its architectural and historic interest. It now trades under the name The Duke on the Green, a reference to its position overlooking Parsons Green, and operates as part of the Young's pub chain. The pub's offer centres on food and drink in a traditional British pub setting. Its official website describes it as overlooking Parsons Green and serving "incredible pub food and drink, whilst never shying away from a party on the weekends." This positions it as both a neighbourhood local and a weekend social destination in the Parsons Green area of Fulham. As a Young's house, the Duke on the Green is part of one of London's best-known pub estates. Young's is a long-established British pub company with a large portfolio across London and southern England, and its pubs typically combine cask ale, wine and spirits with a food-led hospitality offer. The Duke on the Green fits this model, serving the residential and visitor community around Parsons Green. The building's Grade II listing and its 1892 construction date make it a notable piece of Fulham's late-Victorian pub heritage. Its dual identity — historically the Duke of Cumberland, commercially the Duke on the Green — reflects the common practice of London pubs rebranding to emphasise their location while retaining their historic names in listings and records.

The Duke of Cumberland was built in 1892 at 235 New King's Road, Fulham, London. Its architect was Robert J Cruwys. The building is a Grade II listed public house, a designation that reflects its architectural and historic significance within the late-Victorian pub building tradition of London. For much of its life the pub traded under its original name, the Duke of Cumberland. At some point it was renamed The Duke on the Green, a change that aligns the pub's trading identity with its location overlooking Parsons Green. The historic name remains attached to the building in heritage listings and records, while the commercial name is used for day-to-day operations and marketing. The pub is now part of the Young's pub chain. Young's is a long-established British pub operator with a substantial estate in London and southern England, and the Duke on the Green operates within that group's portfolio. As a Young's house, it follows the company's typical model of combining drinks with a food-led hospitality offer. Today the Duke on the Green serves pub food and drink and hosts weekend events, positioning itself as both a local for the Parsons Green community and a destination for visitors to the area. Its Grade II listed building status means its historic fabric is protected, even as its commercial operation continues under the Young's banner.
