Covent Garden may bustle with tourists and theatre crowds today, but down Rose Street, history waits with a bruised jaw and a bucket of blood. In this episode of The Historic London Pubcast, Guide, Eric Blair steps into The Lamb and Flag Rose Street - a pub with cozy beams, crackling fires, and one very bloody backstory of satire and mistresses.
