The Peveril Pub: 22nd April 2011

The Peveril Public house is situated next to Beaconhill Rise Road, with Eastham Close Road on the south side, and Dennet Road to the north. The pub was opened 31 years ago and was a popular venue for local tenants & residents. Its popularity declined in late 2005. It was briefly reopened as the Bollywood in 2006, which lasted for about four months, and the venue finally closed never to reopen its doors. It was then sold to Lecester Hoiusing Association soon after, and the pub was demolished in the summer of 2007. Today a new apartment block is half built on the front of the site, and on the site adjacent to Dennet Road a trench has been excavated. The photographs shown here were mainly taken in early 2007, the rest are more recent.
