Hello all, does anyone know what's happened to The Paxton pub? I recall visiting a once almost 2 years ago and it was like a nightclub with a DJ and about 2 patrons and overpriced drinks.

It is such a beautiful building rich in history and seems to always be closed with no signage to advise of anything. Does anyone know if the council has plans to do anything with this or if there is some discussion happening about it? Would be great to know!

Thanks,

M

Where is it???

Hadn't realised that it had closed, used it a few times in the 00s, then it had a makeover that was very busy on the eye (spose it goes with some psychedelic rave image).  Walked down from Crystal Palace a couple of weeks ago to see it was closed, and an enforcement notice on the door saying that the gas and leccy meters had been removed, so owners gone bankrupt. 

Back in the day (12-13 years ago?) when Scott and co @ Capital pubco revamped it I used to enjoy walking over from East Dulwich Grove and even had an after party for my 1-year old's birthday there. But it was a big old unit that never found its footing IMO. Neil (who managed Bishop and Actress for spells) was looking after it but felt it a bit  removed 

 

So when the  Green King takeover happened I assumed it was doomed. Shame - I have good memories

    • I remember halfpennies. Farthings had gone by my time. 2/6 (half a crown) that looked very similar to 2s.  
    • Looks like moths have been at it!
    • "They sold everyone, directly or indirectly, on the notion that Covid, the energy crisis and the war in Ukraine had nothing to do with the sorry state of the UK and that it was 14 years of Tory rule and Truss' nightmare budget that was the source of all the country's woes. " This simply isn't true. Global issues all play their own parts (as they do with other countries) but the UK govt had  been especially abject for years. Improvements could not be made with them in power. That's not to say everything is all roses when they go To claim parties shouldn't try and sell themselves in an election is absurd - but if labour did overpromise or dig into specifics (which they partly couldn't because they didn't have their hands on the books) then we live in a country where a population and media is happy to punch on them and relect the shabby last govt I mean if any argument I made was supported by some posters I would rethink it but thats just me
