Waltham Forest Council have now ordered that the changes to the building be reversed as they were carried out without planning permission.

There has been a promising development regarding the Antelope. Having failed with their development plans, the owners are apparently willing to lease out the building as a pub. A group of local residents have shown a serious interest in taking the lease and creating a not-for-profit community pub. There is however a long way to go, especially given the state of the building, but let’s wish them luck
