Jack Straw's Castle, Hampstead
Jack Straw's Castle is a Grade II listed building〔"(Jack Straws Castle Public House, Camden )". ''British Listed Buildings''. Retrieved 14 October 2014.〕 and former public house in Hampstead, NorthWest London, England. The current building was designed by the architect Raymond Erith and dates to 1965; it replaced an earlier public house of the same name which was destroyed in The Blitz during the Second World War. The building, like the former one, takes its name from the rebel leader Jack Straw, who led the Peasants' Revolt in 1381 and who is said to have lived on the site. Speaking at Erith's memorial service in 1974, the poet laureate Sir John Betjeman called the building "true Middlesex" and "a delight".〔("A neglected architect who shunned concrete" ), ''Camden New Journal'', online edition (2004)〕 It was the final residence of the music hall singer Alec Hurley, who died there in 1913.〔"Alec Hurley Dead", ''Manchester Courier and Lancashire General Advertiser'', 8 December 1913, p. 10〕
The current building now contains a number of luxury apartments and gymnasium.〔
