Easiest way to approach the pub is from Brockley Station. From there, walk past the cab office and up to Brockley Road. Turn left, passing the Brockley Jack pub and then under the railway bridge. Cross the road and head right, taking the turning for Upper Brockley Road. Keep walking and the pub will be on your right.

sorry no picture of this pubWhat with every gastropub conversion, it's reassuring to know that there's still room for traditional pubs like the Wickham Arms. Here's a place you feel, that won't be recreating itself as a 'pub and dining room' any time soon. It's the sort of pub that's all too rare in Central London - and increasingly rare in the suburbs too. You won't find a range of choice real ales nor is the pub an architectural gem; but it's well-kept, comfy and a place we immediately felt comfortable in. The old-style jukebox (and the sounds emanating from within) also added to its charm. A pool table's in the back room, and if you need any further entertainment, there's karaoke nights every so often.
