Thank you to everyone that has shared the petition, it shows there is a lot of affection for the building and desire that it is preserved and used once again - as per the councils wishes! - as a local hub and community space.

A group of local residents have just set up this 'Antelope Pub E10 Community' group so we can coordinate of efforts. Please join and spread the word!
