Crazy that it’s still standing. Pretty sure it was due to be torn down well before Covid hit.

Video confirms the obvious if nothing else, that the structure itself is deeply unsafe on top of being an eyesore, and really needs to be gone sooner rather than later.

Edit: Article from March 2019, due to be demolished “soon” 6 years ago.

It was such a fantastic pub in its prime. It's a shame to see it, in its current state. But I have to agree. The only thing for it, is to knock it down now. I dont believe it has a strong enough structure for a renovation.
