Councillor demands answers about fate of historic pub
A pub that can be traced back to 1751 now lies derelict and boarded up. The Castle, at the Junction of Cricklewood Lane and Finchley Road NW2, is now under threat of demolition. Local Liberal Democrat Ward Councillor for Childs Hill Jack Cohen is demanding answers from Barnet planners about the future use of the site. Cllr Jack Cohen says "I have been contacted by local residents who are angry, dismayed and upset that this local landmark is in in danger of being destroyed. I have asked the Planning Department whether they know what is going on. Apparently been no planning application has been made, and because the building is not listed and it is not in a conservation area there is nothing that can be done to stop it being demolished."
