After multiple refurbishments, including adding a Georgian town house frontage in the 18th century, conversion to a shop in the 19th century, it finally became a public house in 1980.
The building, known originally as Saint Nicholas House, was erected in the 1200s,[1][2] possibly for the family of the Lord Mayor of London, Richard Whittington, with whom it is associated.
[3] Behind the St Nicholas Church next door, there is a large beer garden.
[4] In 2018, the Dick Whittington was sold by Dominion Hospitality to Four County Inns, who refurbished the venue in 2019[5] The building is based on a timber frame, with a brick frontage and stone dressings.
