Marquis of Lorne, South Wimbledon

CLOSED July 2008 - licence withdrawn. All signage later removed.

Following previous applications/appeals for change of use to residential accommodation, the developers finally came up with a proposal that appears to be less of an eyesore than previous proposals, and on 1 November 2019 Merton Council granted permission for partial demolition, but retaining the pub's original frontage and side façade, to create six self-contained flats.

Planning application for substantial demolition and conversion to flats refused and dismissed on appeal 8th Feb 2019. Design not loss of PH use although decision establishes that present use is still A4.

Enforcement notice came into effect on 18th March 2016 the requirement would be to cease using the building as eight self-contained flats within 6 months.
