Crocker's Folly, pub in Islington, London. Any info please?

Question

Does anyone know anything about this place?

All I can find out is that now it has been closed, but was originally built by a Frank Crocker.

A friend of mine believes that she may be related to him, and is trying to trace her roots, as she was adopted at the age of 3.

If anyone knows anything about this, we would be grateful for any small piece of information!

Answer 1

24 Aberdeen Place NW8, just off Edgware Road.  Closed since 2004. Still a magnificent site, but boarded up. I think Frank C also had a pub called the Volunteer, 77 Kilburn High Road - still open but now called OSTERIA DEL PONTE.
