Demo'd a few months back, think I may've been one of the last to get in before it went

They were prepping it in December when I went as upstairs was piled up in the centre of the building & several large holes had been drilled in the walls!

3 out of 4 explores with scrub.

This place has been closed since i've move down here.
Dont know why or when.

i've recced this site a couple of times and was all ways put off by its location, right next to the A38.
any one who has travelled or will travel down to Plymouth will see this place.

couple of months ago it got boarded up, bout a week later it there was graffiti over the pub and on the boards.
it was time to stop and find away in and way in we found.

this is the only site that me and scrub has done that has almost made us vomit, there is fridges and frezers of left over food that is rotting. i'm surprised it can't get up and walk around. the smell from the chest freezers made us gag. rotting food, flys and out of date beer. great

enjoy the pics.

Hi
I owned this place from 1997 to 2000 I bought it from Bill Glass and was in a bad way ,spent lots on the building and kitchen,we had a good first year but trade declined not a lot of local support
I moved back to Dorset was managing a pub in Christchurch and seen it advertised for sale at £500,000
The place drained money ,gas and electric £3000 a quarter ,new owner spent about a year doing alterations but obviously didnt work
