There is something sublime about this lofty former pub, possibly enhanced by its dereliction. Built in 1900 by William Jenkins. Until 1958 it was the Rose and Crown. The surrounding area has been built up as new housing since this photo, and it is likely to be renovated, apparently at the expense of everything but the facade.
