Formerly the Wilton Arms, this pub is neither a listed building nor is it on CAMRA’s London Regional Inventory of Pub Interiors of Special Historic Interest. Sadly most of its Victorian splendour has been obliterated. However, it has several Art Deco features of note including blind arcades on the wall leading to the staircase in the same decorative scheme. There is more Art Deco work at the entrance to, and within the billiard room. This includes jazzy decoration and a stained glass window depicting trees with a built-in glass clock to the left. Note also the remaining door lobby at the entrance to the pub.

The Thomas Farley featured on the Daytime Crawl of Thornton Heath and Croydon in October 2008.
