The pub, originally the Hope &amp; Anchor, is in the Bruce Castle Park area of N17 and dates from 1822, making it Tottenham\u2019s longest established working pub. In 2013 the then owners, Enterprise Inns, sold it to developers and it faced demolition. Some 300 regulars and supporters thought otherwise, had the pub listed as an Asset of Community Value and chipped in to buy it. The pub, which is family (and dog) friendly, is thriving and is a regular outlet for the locally brewed Redemption beers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"448\" height=\"335\" src=\"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-65.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-891\" srcset=\"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-65.jpg 448w, https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-65-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 448px) 100vw, 448px\" \/><figcaption>Photo by Rex Ward<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Antwerp Arms Association are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported this community venture, not least their sponsors the National Community Fund (National Lottery).
