PLANNING APPLICATIONS
We list here planning applications that threaten the future of pubs in the South West London branch area. At the present time there is none on which it is still possible to comment. It is most important that local residents especially post objections if the plans are to be refused. The main CAMRA website includes advice on planning applications, and a link to it is here: Dealing with Planning Applications.
The CAMRA LocAle initiative is the accreditation scheme to promote pubs that sell locally-brewed real ale, reducing the number of ‘beer miles’ and supporting local breweries.
Several pubs in our area have LocAle accreditation. This entails a pub permanently stocking at least one real ale produced within thirty miles of the pub.
For more information and a list of accredited LocAle pubs in our area see our LocAle page.
CAMRA’s ON-LINE HERITAGE PUB GUIDE
The National Inventory is CAMRA's pioneering effort to identify and protect the most important historic pub interiors in the country. It has always been part of the campaign's mission to not only save real ale but also Britain's rich heritage of pubs. See www.heritagepubs.org.uk.
