Another 'Last Orders'

Image: © Neil Owen Taken: 28 Jun 2013

The Bush in Totterdown was an old pub which was eventually demolished in June 1973 as part of the council's grand plan - a plan that never materialised other than the wholesale flattening of this community. The building here was opened in 1985 as a replacement, although it's a short distance from the original. It had been hoped to rebuild this area (after completing a huge ring road system!) and this large pub was provided for the community. The obvious problem is that the people didn't return in the numbers expected and the Bush is expensive to run. Sadly it is now boarded up, just like so many others of a longer history.
