Duke's Head

The Duke's Head is a Grade II listed public house in Putney, London, situated between Putney Embankment and Lower Richmond Road, on the corners with Thames Place. A pub is thought to have stood on the site since 1774, while the current building dates from 1864, with interior fittings from 1894. The basement was historically used by Putney Town Rowing Club for boat storage. The pub overlooks the start of the University Boat Races and is close to the Boat Race start stone. Today the Duke's Head operates as a quintessentially British pub, restaurant and private dining venue. It serves Young's original beers and hearty pub food, and is managed by Young & Co. In 2006 it became Young's first smoke-free venue. The pub is a well-known local landmark in Putney, popular with rowing enthusiasts and visitors to the Thames riverside.
