Application for new licence provides hope for beloved Highgate pub

Highgate’s Winchester Tavern may soon be welcoming customers once again, with an application for a new premises licence to be reviewed by Haringey Council's licensing sub-committee on Monday (January 10). 

The application was submitted by the Northern Union Pub Company, which has had recent successes in saving north London pubs The Albert in Primrose Hill, the Haverstock Tavern in Haverstock Hill, and Hampstead’s Old White Bear.
