The Kings Head was situated at 80 Three Colt Street. This pub was present by 1839 and closed before 1983.  It is now in private residential use.

In the 1930s/early 1940s this was used as a banana warehouse trading as Lambert & Ellis. As a child when I lived on Limehouse Causeway we used to scavenge the fallen straw looking for the odd, dropped, banana to store in a drawer to ripen up and eat later. It later stopped trading as a banana wholesalers and reopened as a pub.

This converted pub is now a thriving artists space with owners penthouse on the 2nd floor with roof terrace, artists studio on first floor and a number of studios on the ground floor.
