The Bricklayer's Arms

It is nice to see that the much improved Bricklayer's Arms public house in Waterman Street off Lower Richmond Road has received recognition at last. It beat thousands of pubs across the capital to scoop the Greater London Pub of the Year Award from CAMRA, the real ale enthusiasts.

Congratulations to Becky Newman and John Marklew who have overseen the turning around of this once notorious pub. I was in there last week and can attest to its warm welcome and cosy atmosphere. A welcome change from some of the clone pubs in our town centre.

The pub even has a website: http://www.bricklayers-arms.co.uk/
