The Two Brewers

The Two Brewers, Dartford, Kent

A small pub with a tiled frontage situated on the fringe of the centre of this Thames-side town, which closed in 2015. The site opposite appears to be in the process of redevelopment.

The Jolly Miller

The Jolly Miller, Harpurhey, Manchester

A former Samuel Smith’s pub in North Manchester, that gave its name to the surrounding estate, but has been closed since 2015. There are now calls for it to be demolished after having fallen into ‘disrepair and dereliction’.

The Cricketers

The Cricketers, Kennington, London

An inter-wars pub in the shadow of the Oval cricket ground that appears to have been built at the same time as the surrounding council housing. Nobody can claim there’s a shortage of potential customers here.

The Craven Arms

The Craven Arms, Craven Arms, Shropshire

A familiar landmark on the main A49 road between Shrewsbury and Hereford, that gave its name to a railway junction and the small town that grew up around it. It has been closed for over three years, and plans have been submitted to convert the entire building to apartments.

The Village Bells

The Village Bells, Eling, Hampshire

An attractive white-painted pub in the fork of two roads in a village located across the estuary of the Test from Southampton. It closed for the last time in 2015.
