Striking firefighters and closed pub

Greenwich fire station on Blissett Street had a "closed" sign outside as the firefighters were on strike. But I think they would have answered an emergency call-out. The building to the right still bears the name "Royal George" but the former Shepherd Neame pub actually closed in 2010 and was converted into flats.
