It’s always sad to see a pub boarded up.

Tonight, I happened upon a London pub boarded up and silent. The New
Concorde in Bermondsey has fallen on hard times. Its signs boast a restaurant serving la carte food and fine ales. The reality is silence on a summer’s evening. The sign shows Concorde in flight – suggesting the pub was renamed in the 1970 to capture a symbol of the age. Sadly, Concorde has also  passed into history.
