East London’s iconic 500-year-old gem is getting a second chance at life! 🍻🇬🇧

​The Grade II listed Spotted Dog in Forest Gate is one of the oldest timber-framed buildings in London, dating all the way back to the 15th century. Legend has it that King Henry VIII used it as a hunting lodge, and centuries later, merchants used its rooms to trade when fleeing the Great Plague in 1665.

​After sitting abandoned since 2004, the pub was bought with ambitious restoration plans to revive it as a thriving community hub, supported by local heritage campaigners and the teams behind local craft b**r venues like Peckham Tavern and CAMRA.

Would you dare to grab a pint here after dark? 🍻👻 A historic Welsh local has been named alongside the Tower of London and Edinburgh Castle as one of Britain's most haunted places! With a dark medieval past featuring a stairwell used for hangings and a resident ghost leaving the scent of lavender behind, this is proper spine-chilling stuff.

The heart of the community is fading fast — new figures reveal the East of England has suffered the biggest percentage decline in pub numbers of any English region since 2010. Every lost local means losing a space for connection, live sport, and chat.

How many locals have disappeared near you?

The changing face of the great British local... 🍺❌➡️🏢 A historic pub is set to be transformed into a brand-new charity hub and offices. It's a sign of the times for our beloved local buildings, but at least the doors will remain open to support the local community.
