I was working in London the other week in an office on Ludgate Hill, near St Pauls cathedral, opposite "Ye Olde London" pub. And this got me remembering back to when the Eerie Pub chain had their gothic themed pubs around the country. What a shame that they didn't stay open for that many years and got taken over. Obviously people didn't fancy having a pint and pub lunch in somewhere that looked like a torture chamber with skulls, manicles, chains and gargoyles all over the place! I had many a pleasant pint in the "Bell Book & Candle" (which became "Ye Olde London") in Ludgate Hill and "London Stone" opposite Cannon Street railway station and managed to find this flyer.
