We mentioned that the Festival Inn in Grundy Street, Poplar (E14 6AD) was to receive a plaque recording its listing on CAMRA’s National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors. The presentation was duly made on Saturday 1 February. Pictured are Cath the landlady holding the plaque and Geoff Brandwood from CAMRA’s Pub Heritage Group who made the presentation. Also present were Elain Harwood of Historic England and a number of members of CAMRA’s London Pubs Group. With thanks to George Ingleby for the photograph.
