Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

It seems the West Green Tavern is on the market. 

By the look of the details given on rightmove the pub will stay, with the opportunity to develop housing upstairs. 

Does anyone local have strong feelings about what should/ should happen to the building. What would locals like to see in the area? A decent pub would be a nice addition to WGR I think!

I know LOTS of people who would LOVE to see a decent pub on West Green road. A proper London pub like the Salisbury or Westbury would be very welcome.

agreed

Agreed here also, if it wasn't for The Beehive there would be nowhere decent around N17. Altough, I would love to be corrected on that.

There's the Antwerp Arms. N17 8AS

The Antwerp Arms is a massive hike from west green road. We really could do with a decent boozer here. Maybe the owners of West Green Tavern are cashing in on the glory of West Green road's favourable appearance on last week's Location, Location, Location!

Oh good, is that of any use?

I'll rephrase that less colloquially, is the Antwerp Arms a good pub?

It's a good pub for the area. They're trying to do a lot with it. Bit too much of a walk for it to be a regular haunt for me.

Locals interested in preserving the future of the site as a pub should consider an application t' Council to have the pub listed as an Asset of Community Value - It's also a good way of bringing together the local community on an issue of common interest.

An ACV listing was the first step in securing the future of The Antwerp Arms and, more recently, The Prince in Bounds Green. The Prince ACV Listing.

How would the community go about this? Was anyone on here involved with the Antwerp Arms and would like to share their expertise?

There's more guidance from CAMRA here:

Information for Community Groups 

Interested parties could use Haringay Online to gather the necessary 21 signatories. I used a more specifically local website to get the ball rolling with my local pub in N22

The Prince ACV campaign

This Haringey link is also quite helpful

Haringey ACV Guidance

I'm sure the Antwerp Arms posse would also offer advice and support:

The Antwerp Arms and they are also on Facebook

My own advice is simply that if you wait for someone else to make this happen, it won't!
