how to find it:

From Clapton train station, turn right and take the second left (Northwold Street). The pub is a few minutes down on the left. If you want to pretend its in Stoke Newington instead, exit from Stokey train station and turn left. Follow the one way system around as it veers to the left and at the park it will branch off to the left and become into Northwold Street. The pub is about 10 minutes down on the right.

picture of Royal SovereignAfter a rather more dramatic refurbishment than we had expected, the Royal Sovereign has reopened for business. We'll go back to see if they've managed to retain the previous unique atmosphere amongst the new, overtly corporate furnishings.
