It is fairly rare to find a closed pub returned to something like its original use. This used to be an estate pub, The Happy Return, built as part of the Willoughby Street re-development of the mid-1960s (much of which has already disappeared). The other pub from that era, the 17th/21st Lancers is now a Tesco. The Happy Return closed in December 2009.
