The historic Ye Olde Swiss Cottage pub, established in the 1830s and significantly renovated in 1930, has been granted asset of community value status, safeguarding it from demolition for the next five years. The decision, supported by local councillors and organizations, allows community members time to potentially purchase the pub should it be put on the market. Advocates emphasize the importance of pubs not just for their beverages but as vital community hubs, highlighting the concerning trend of pub closures in London this year.
We are keen to work with the current owners to come up with a solution that benefits the community.
Camra wants to save pubs because they sell good beer but we also want to save them because they are part of the community.
