Comments on: Save The Queen’s Head In Limehouse! https://spitalfieldslife.com/2016/03/28/save-the-queens-head-in-limehouse/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Tue, 29 Mar 2016 16:01:21 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Matt O'Leary https://spitalfieldslife.com/2016/03/28/save-the-queens-head-in-limehouse/#comment-1083789 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 16:01:21 +0000 http://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=144246#comment-1083789 Thanks very much to the Gentle Author for bringing our campaign and the story of the Bun-In to the attention of others in the Spitalfields Life reading community. The Queens Head is a special place, a real “community centre” in the truest sense of the word. It would be a travesty if it were allowed to close and we as a community have a responsibility to future generations to keep it going strong. Please support us – support can be for the campaign itself or just by popping in and saying hello! You can be guaranteed a warm welcome, a decent pint and yes…a game of darts if you’re so inclined!

The pub also has (or used to, last time I went in) a rare London dartboard.

I love to see your annual blog about the ceremony and was wondering how it would play out this year. Happy Easter from across the pond.

When all of the historical sites, houses and buildings have been demolished or ‘modernised’, who will want to live in the concrete and glass wastes that will be left? Valerie

The Council should never have sold it in the first place. Good luck with the campaign!
