The pub reopened 5th May 2023 under its previous name. The pub and garden has been given a complete makeover by the new management who are the same owners of The Railway Teddington and The Greyhound in Kew Green. The inside is divided into three different spaces, the main bar area, lounge area and conservatory dining area. The garden has been split into three areas, the raised deck with high and low tables for drinking, dining and private functions. This astro-turfed dining area can accommodate a 50-seater restaurant to dine at your leisure and a newly laid grass area will complete the theme with deckchairs, a pop-up bar and a pergola swing to relax in the summertime to come. The kitchen provides breakfast, a set lunch, a la carte and children’s menus and is run by Greedies www.greediesworld.com

The pub is said to have been opened in 1830 (but there is some evidence it may have been earlier) and re-fronted and extended in 1925. It is now designated a Building of Townscape Merit. The pub is named after The Duke of Clarence who lived in Bushy House with his mistress, the celebrated actress Dora Jordan. He was later crowned King William IV in 1830.
