Duke & Duchess, St Pauls

It looks as if this pub, and this one, are one and the same.

This is an odd one.

They were both suggested on the same day (8 December 2008), with 64542 looking to have originally been under the name of Ochre Bar. This is definitely now the Duke & Duchess at EC4V 5BR, as I can verify from my 2013 visit.

I can't find a name change for 64544, so it appears to always have been listed under the Duke & Duchess name. However, it was actually the Lounge at 4 Burgon Street, EC4V 5DR, although this is now the Anokha St Pauls (an Indian restaurant and bar). Name, address, postcode and map point changed accordingly.

Thanks. From the photos already up here, it looked as if 64544 had been a lounge bar (possibly a separate business from 64542) but it looked as if it had been subsumed into the Duke & Duchess at some stage.

That's what I thought initially, but it is actually a different bar in a different (albeit reasonably nearby) road)...

Great piece of detective work - well played!
