Pump & Tap Pub, Leicester

[Goldie87]

Stopped by there this afternoon with mattdonut and Boothy. Scaffolding still going up and was able to see more of the damage in the daylight. The lease has not expired on the arch, however demolition workers have been going in there anyway, fooling around and trying to steal stuff!

Thanks for the pics Goldie. I used to drink in this place quite a bit when i was a student - I used to live just round the corner from it. A real shame its going as there really aren't enough places like this about.

True. They destroyed loads of archeology and old buildings to build the holiday inn and underpass.

Leicester City Council

have just appointed a new (heritage) conservation officer, and a very sound egg she is too. Leicester's heritage will be in good hands........
