Roz, I urge you to give a little more consideration to some of the architectural features of this building:




This building was open to the public until recently and it has many architectural features that should be preserved, both inside and out.

More details can be found at http://sydenhamforesthillhistory.blogspo...enham.html

With the exception of Forest Hill Library and Horniman Museum there are few publicly accessible buildings more worthy of preservation. It makes Louise House look very boring and plain, and I cannot believe that English Heritage have not listed this pub.

Sydenham Society website wrote:
A recent listed building application to English Heritage was turned down. Of the tiled lobby English Heritage state: "Surviving intact, the tiled drinking corridor might have been of sufficient interest to counterbalance the absence of original features elsewhere... however, the owners have begun to demolish the most significant element of the building".


If you want to prevent a building being listed, just start tearing it apart.
