As mentioned by Konk in the Morhinio thread. Flat roofed pubs are normally shiteholes which are suited to and are normally frequented by a good few Scum supporters. Here's my offering as one of the roughest ,worst boozers I've ever been in . The Beaver in Beaver's Estate Hounslow .Now that was a REAL shithole!! Looks like its closed down.Thank F@ck...
Add your own wonderful flat roofed watering holes...
Just bumping this back up to cheer us all up. My brother said he’d been reading it recently and it had him in stitches (which you could get if you drunk in some of these places!).

I'm sure it's been mentioned but my football local used to be The Wat Tyler on the ferrior I'm always been accused by people as being somewhat paranoid in that I always look around and check meself (before I wreck meself) and entrances and people when I go anywhere lol

Ahh, that takes me back. During the summer after I left school I spent a month working in one of the factories on the industrial estate before starting college? On the last day we all went to the Surveyors at lunch time, it was absolutely heaving, spent three hours there, staggered back to work and all got sacked for being late/drunk!

So very sadly no more as recently demolished to make way for housing.
Real Ales served direct from the cask. Secret garden entrances. Stuffers steps. Sit around the table folk music. Poetry.

As did I.

Whaaaaat. Really sad to hear this. As an ex resident of medway I haven't been in there for quite a few years. There were plenty of grotty pubs there, probably enough for a flat roof boozer thread on its own, but that was a cracking pub

It permanently closed on 31st January apparently. I was last in there about a year ago.
As you say no shortage of pubs nearby flat roof or otherwise. Man of Kent just a stone's throw away which in truth is probably a better pub, beer wise.
So sad about the Good Intent. Terrific community pub.

Yes it's sad, I was a bit taken aback by this one. community pubs have struggled, but I notice the good intent was owned by enterprise inns, so the council should have been wise to their game, as they are basically a property development company. Rochester still has a lot of pubs, but not so strood, which hardly has any left. Estate /flat roof pubs have died out most. Tonbridge, where I live now has several large housing estates where all the pubs have gone, and it's similar in tunbridge wells where there was an excellent flat roof pub called the sir alf ramsay which was demolished last year

There's a separate thread possible right there, Mick.
Neon-lit take-aways.

I kept waiting for him to go in and actually have a pint somewhere. It might just be me, but I find the inside of a pub much more interesting than the external architecture. Is he barred from all of them?

On the road in to Liverpool from Runcorn, you pass a scrap dealership. If you catch it right, you can snigger like a schoolboy at the effect of the protruding wall.

This is quite simply my favourite thread on the whole site (close second is Konk's Postman Pat thread) and is the the reason that I took to reading the site. It is superb.

Found it!

There used to be an Alsatian doing the same thing on the roof of some pub in Acton that could be viewed from the Central Line train. I also found an absolute stinker in West Drayton a couple of days back - The Cat and Fiddle. The sign on the door said “ members only.”
Scary.

I used to sometimes go to gigs at the george robey. The owner would stand on the flat roof bit with a pair of binoculars, checking punters weren't going to the nearby offy and secreting cans about their body. I know this, because I did and the bouncers were waiting for me. They were ok, except a short-arsed one, who came up to me later and showed his displeasure by holding out his arm and crushing a paper cup, which was supposed to intimidate me but made me laugh uproariously. The other bouncers agreed that he was a dick and lead him away!
