This is a real shame. Back in the day pre covid this was probably my favourite little pub.

Can't say the place was ever heaving with people, but it had a bit of character about it. The owner at the time had tried the "S.A only" business model, with regards to beers, food and wine.

The half-arsed refurb afterwards took away any form of charm the place once had. And now, it would be unlikely it will ever pour a beer again. Hope im proven wrong.

In nice weather was always a good vibe on the footpath and was a great bottle shop you could sit in for a drink as well. Real shame.

Wouldn't be surprised if the next step is "arson" that "unfortunately" means they have to demolish more the building and oh so conveniently have a more valuable development site.

that happened with the Wright St, but these old stone buildings don't just fall down in a fire

Fencing, the minimal scaffolding that was there, and signage of the new development have all been removed. Now just an empty block.

there's a half demolished stone wall there which is a safety hazard as it could easily fall over

Well, this one is being helped in that direction by the fact that it’s basically open to the elements at the back where they demolished the outbuildings.

It’s already got plants growing out of the gutters too.
