Crocker's Folly is a Grade II* listed public house at 24 Aberdeen Place, St John's Wood, London.[1] It was built in 1898,[2] in a Northern Renaissance style, and was previously called The Crown.[1] Geoff Brandwood and Jane Jephcote's guide to heritage pubs in London describes it as "a truly magnificent pub-cum-hotel" with "superb fittings", including extensive use of marble.[2] The architect was Charles Worley.[3]
