I have received an e-mail notification regarding a request to mark The Britannia (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/77345/) as part of Reading Central by just a quick pint and Im off (RP),It is marked as closed, but I am not familliar with it despite walking past its alleged location yesterday, it doesnt show up on the interactive map despite enabling closed pubs, does it exist? Quinno should know I suspect, but I cant find it.Am I missing something or is it a glitch?

This one of Graham Mason's 'lost pubs' that doesn't feature in most searches but is still in the database. I think that Dave stopped adding some of these long-lost pubs at some stage, but they do show up from time to time when searching by name (but not by town / village, 'served area' or postcode). I spotted this one when looking for something else and assigned it a 'served area' just for completeness, but I suspect that it has long since been academic in this case.
