This pub has been sold and has been closed down - noticed at the weekend (25/26 September 2010). Sad

This looks like another very unprepossessing pub that appears to be stuck in a time warp. It retains its original three-bar format, though two of the bars are now connected by a small archway. But these are plus factors in my book. It has mostly banquette seating, with a few normal chairs and small stools. The original wood panelling on the walls is still in place; there�s a dartboard; and the tables are covered with (now rarely seen) dimpled copper. All in all this is an ordinary pub whose simplicity is its main attraction. There would have been thousands of pubs like this in London 30 years ago, but now, unfortunately, they are becoming rarer by the day. The arched, wood framed windows with what looks like the original leaded lights are particularly attractive. I hope that they are visible in the photograph that I�ve uploaded. The only real ale on was Courage Best, which was in good nick, at the very good price of �2.55 a pint.

Is the inside still the same? I quite liked it in there.

For the love of God, someone go to the Hare & Hounds before mikegooch feels the need to advertise again!

The H&H has been under new managment for about 6 months. Repainted outside, and a good pub to be in.
Also the mens darts team are top of the Battersea div one league within two months.

Drove past it today @ 1200 it looked like it was open for business as usual. Maybe someone mistook it for The Plough across the road.

Boarded up

A decent boozer on the frontline of that wasteland known as Plough Lane.
