Here are a couple of pictures taken in today’s elegiac evening sunlight of the Four Heatons pub just down the road from me, which has now been closed for over two years. Compare it with these shots (http://pubcurmudgeon.blogspot.co.uk/2011/02/i-told-you-so.html) taken when it had recently shut. All the signage has been removed, boarding replaced with metal sheets and the balustrade has started to crumble away.
Planning permission has now gone through for it to be demolished and replaced by a small Co-op supermarket with flats above, so it shouldn’t be with us for that much longer.
It may not look the most appealing of pubs, but I’ve had plenty of good times in there over the years.
