Not just a hotel - it mentions a replacement pub/restaurant on the ground floor. Looks good to me (at a very casual first glance). Probably a better idea than the original replacement, which was a pub...

Quick warning - I was assaulted this morning on Dacres Road, not too far from the Dietrich Bonhoffer church. At about 07;00 a man hit me out of the blue, with no warning or provocation. He knocked me...

Picturehouse would be ideal. The Ritzy and the Clapham Picturehouse are pretty close to each other, and often show different films to make sure they don't conflict. Could this model work for the Capit...
