The Royal Oak #RIP - 67 Barking Road, #CanningTown, #London, #E16 ⚰️ 🥊

🎙 @VinnieSull1van
🎥 @ChelseaDan5

Barking Road is a world of pub stores and pub losses all to itself. This hostelry is the first one would have come across on the high street. A pub with a troublesome reputation and a world class boxing legacy, now it's building serves as a Turkish restaurant. 🍻

The Tragic State of East #London's Pubs ⚰️ 🍻 (1080p edition)

🎙 @VinnieSull1van
🎥 @ChelseaDan5

#EastLondon is a prime location to see the drastic death of Britain's public houses. Across Britain, pubs are closing or being changed into gastro-bars on mass. East London acts as a showroom to their overall decline as wherever one turns, a ghost is stating back at you. This short video is but a taste of the depressive nature that London, and our work uncovering its dying pubs, truly feels. #RIP 🤝

This amazing postcard of #Epping High Sreet in April 1906 captures 'The Thatched House' (right) #RIP. I can tell you from personal experience that Epping is a blessing within #Essex.

I'm sad to announce that the Ordnance (#Arsenal) pub in #Woolwich, #London, #SE18, has been closed with a repossession notice attached outside. The pub was certainly rough around the edges, but it served an important purpose. The area has heavily declined…
#RIP Ordnance Arms ⚰️

The pub is one of the last recognisable traits of the region. It had its name changed to "O'Connors" some time before February 2007, but it changed back to the "Ordnance Arms" again in May 2016. The pub sits opposite the old 'Royal #ArtilleryBarracks in #Woolwich', which is now a modernistic estate. One surviving pub in the artillery zone is the 'Dial Arch' (Riverside, The Warren, No 1 St, Royal #Arsenal, #London). We coveted it in the past as it was the founding spot of @Arsenal football club.

The Ordnance served many football fans and locals alike, we will keep an eye on it and hope for the best.

The people outside this pub seem to say so very much despite being but lost souls within a vintage photo.

Nags Head, St Johns Street, #Lechlade, #England. #RIP
The Tabbard Inn, #Southwark, #London, #England

Established in 1307, it once stood on the east side of #Borough High Street, at the road's intersection with the ancient thoroughfare to #Canterbury and #Dover. Originally built for the Abbot of #Hyde in #Winchester, who bought the land to create a place for himself and his ecclesiastical folk to stay when working in #London

Among its stories, it was known for accommodating people who made the pilgrimage to the Shrine of #ThomasBecket in #Canterbury Cathedral, and it is mentioned in the 14th-century writings of the #CanterburyTales by Geoffrey Chaucer.

In the early 18th century, the new inn was making good business in stagecoach traffic between London and the channel ports because of the growth in turnpikes. By the early 19th century, it was solidified as a well-renowned coaching inn. However, with the birth of the railways, it eventually closed. The building eventually demolished in 1873. #RIP ⚰️

A crowd gathers outside the 'Frying Pan' public house on #BrickLane in #Whitechapel, East #London during the 1880s. Brick Lane is now a graveyard of pubs. Instead, one is met with a baragement of graffiti. This photo was taken during the time that the Whitechapel Murders (Jack the Ripper murders) were taking place. If only we could hear what they were saying. #RIP 🍻
The “George the Fourth Tavern,” Clare Market #RIP

#ClareMarket is a historic area within #CentralLondon located within the parish of St #ClementDanes to the west of #LincolnsInnFields, between the #Strand and #DruryLane, with #VereStreet adjoining its western side. It was named after the food market which had been established in Clement's Inn Fields, by John Holles, 2nd Earl of Clare. Much of the area and its landmarks were immortalised by #CharlesDickens in The Old Curiosity Shop, The Pickwick Papers, Barnaby Rudge and Sketches by Boz.
The Dolphin Inn – Heigham Street, #Norwich, #England - #RIP

Formerly a house known as Bishop Hall’s Palace that's supposed to have been built for the Sheriff of Norwich, Richard Brown. It was damaged by an incendiary bomb upon which the owners, Steward & Patteson, rebuilt the it after the war and it was reopened as a pub in 1960. By 1999, the owners at the time decided to close the pub and later offered it for sell up. In 2001 it was damaged by a FIRE🧐... and has since become a chiropractic practice.
