Protected interwar pubs
The Duke of William, Stoke-on-Trent
The Duke of William, Stoke-on-Trent has been listed for the following reasons:
Historic interest: as an early C19 urban public house rebuilt in the inter-war period along ‘improved’ lines.
Architectural interest: a characteristic example of the Brewers’ Tudor style popular in the 1920s and '30s;
Intactness: the building is very well-preserved both externally and internally and employs high-quality, well-crafted materials including terrazzo flooring, glazed screenwork, wall panelling and panelled bar counters.
Planning interest: the survival of its plan form as three distinct bar areas arranged around a central island servery, and for the rare survival of its off-sales area.
