The Wharf public house
Built in 1998 in the local vernacular style to fit in with the surrounding canal side buildings, this opened as "Jackson's Wharf" but was unsuccessful. From closure in 2005 until 2011 it was under threat of demolition and replacement with a modern horror of some sort, but the plans were defeated by local activists, and the present building re-opened as a more successful pub soon afterwards.
Food, service, and ambience are exemplary, and I think the outcome was a good one.
See http://www.brunningandprice.co.uk/thewharf/history/ for the pub's own history page, from which most of these details come.
