<p>If you'd like to read more, comment on HoL or comment formally on the planning application (till 25th of this month, I think), please visit <a href="http://www.harringayonline.com/group/friendsofthequeensheadtavern/forum/topics/queens-head-planning" target="_blank">the original discussion</a>. Surely this building is worth 5 or 10 minutes to try and save.</p>
