And They Wanted To Knock It Down!

- 'The Wenlock Arms' Public House is a Rare English Pub Tavern Dated 1825 and is STILL Trading in Old London Town after developers tried to demolish this traditional old London Pub to make way for private dwellings. Fortunately the locals signed petitions etc to stop this from happening! It is now a listed building.
The Wenlock Arms is a historic and beloved pub in London's East End with several interesting facts associated with it:
The pub has a long history, having first opened for business in 1787. This makes it over 235 years old, surviving through significant changes in London's landscape and culture.
It's located in Hoxton, halfway between Old Street and Angel, near the Regent's Canal. This location has likely contributed to its enduring popularity.
The Wenlock Arms is renowned for its cask ales. It has been named North London Pub of the Year by the local CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale) branch four times since reopening in 1994.
The pub has a celebrity connection - David Beckham used to join his grandfather for drinks at the Wenlock Arms, even after he became a famous footballer.
It has appeared in popular culture, featuring in the opening titles of the TV show "Al Murray's Compete for the Meat" and serving as a filming location for Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg's 2013 film "The World's End".
The Wenlock Arms faced potential demolition in 2010, but was saved after a vigorous campaign led by the local community and CAMRA. It reopened on June 3, 2013, after a period of closure.
The pub building, constructed in 1835, is a survivor of the wartime bombing of the area and retains a traditional pub interior.
It's known for its warm atmosphere, open fire, and simple but delicious snacks like hot cheese toasties.
The Wenlock Arms is now protected as part of a conservation area, following a decision by Hackney Council in December 2011.
These facts highlight the Wenlock Arms' historical significance, its importance to the local community, and its reputation as a quintessential London pub.
Great informative comments!
Thank you very much for this wonderful information. This is very helpful to everyone watching. Thank You. I've pinned this comment to the top. All the boogie best. Terry Miles 🤠
@@TuftyVFTA Thanks for the info, love it!
Just got back from an 8 day adventure through London pubs, sadly I didn't cross paths with Terry - probably a good thing because I do have a job to go back to in the states & honestly I'd probably extend my vacation. "This" is what I love about visiting the UK as well as N. Europe. I have met so many genuine, friendly and true to heart souls in Europe/UK that I feel so home here. I miss you all and bow down to the beautiful culture you all have contributed to the world.
Thank you!!! 💕
Even though there were not many drinkers, a piano transforms the atmosphere of a pub. Well done Terry.😊😊😊😊
Music the road to friendship.
Terry is what great Britain was a lively hart warming country god bless Terry boogie woogie man gentleman
Awesome London is the best city in the World
In my opinion, this was one of your best Pub Piano Quests. Your playing, your music, the mood in the pub and by all people, that`s mentally touching me.
Thank you for doing such a wonderful job, Terry, and for sharing it with us. Greetings from Germany, Klaus Z.
A proper London pub. Keep finding these gems, Terry!
I just realized that I have a big smile on my face while watching this channel! What great positive energy bringing people together for-sure.
British people have kinda weirdly often mastered the skill of being positive without being toxicly positive. I think their daily dose of satire, sarcasm and cynicism helps.
I Love watching you . From Altoona , Pennsylvania USA
Terry should have played "The Pennsylvania Polka" watching from Hatfield, Pa. U.S.A.
Terry, you brought the place to life they all loved it
I don't comment ever but this is one of my favorite channels TERRY IS SO DANG COOL!
Human nature rejoiced that day, for authenticity was reborn in an old house that day!
Thank you from us all!
Wonderful Pop-Up Surprise, Terry, on another Hot Summer's day!! Will come indoors, cool-down a bit, Enjoy some Fantastic Boogie & meet some new folks!! Many thanks, Terry😊🎉👍🍻🍻🌞
What time is okra? I had catfish for lunch today (with onion & hot sauce) :)
@@chriskane8625 Wow!! great lunch spread at your place,,, bigtime heat advisory here,,, the onions can carmelize on the pool deck right now!! See you on Terry's Wenlock Arms premiere 😄🤝🍻
I love it when we've been good and Terry takes us places. I enjoy the rich history of the pubs and have always been so impressed at how clean they are. Long Live the Palm Tree 🌴🌴
WELL, I'VE BEEN BAD AND TERRY JUST PUTS ME IN A BETTER PLACE, OUTSTANDING TALENT!
Nice to see the Welsh Flag above the bar.
Loved Lilly The Pink.
And some good old London songs.
Loved Great Balls Of Fire...
That's good old Terry and his red socks.
To end a hard week with a Terry Miles Video (and LiveChat) ... 👍
A big surprise and a big pleasure, Terry !!!
Lovely to see a real pub with a piano. Thank you so much Terry for finding this and sharing it with us. Always good to hear you play Terry.
Legendary Musician and Forgotten Tavern Discover🎹 Terry 🤠 Miles 🎹 does it Again. Great Job and thanks for taking us Along. Thanks also to Cadillac Roy .❤ Have a Great Weekend
Great job. Thanks for the visit to the pub.
Good to see Eric looking down upon you with a smile, I expect he was tapping his feet in Heaven when he heard the Boogie Woogie...
Thank you, Robert. Yes, we all miss Eric and Ernie. Glad you enjoyed watching my latest UA-cam 'Terry's Pub Piano Quest' video. All the boogie best. Terry 🤠
Fantastic to see Terry belting out some great music.
Sad to see zombies stood still holding mobile phones.
Should be up grooving to the sounds.
Our local Pub (Duke of Edinburgh) in Cuppertino California used to have sing songs like this every Friday and Saturday with all the local Brits. It was great fun
Hello Cadillac Roy too,,nice see👋💕〰️〰️〰️🎹🎶Great you song,,like and membe this,,,🎶〰️🎹🎹💃💃💃💃👍🍺Thank you and Terry Miles this wonderful musiic.

Great series Terry, yes pubs are closing down but you're keeping them alive with your boogie woogie
Maybe someone should create a piano bar that sells weed instead of alchohol lol?
That would probably be hilarious.
Lovely to see Roy singing, such a blast from the past, well done Roy x
Yes, 'Cadillac Roy' is a great entertainer and good friend to the Channel. All the boogie best. Terry Miles 🤠🎹
brilliant was that terry ....i was smiling hand tapping all the way through that .... now to walk the dogs
Love that you take the time to find these old pubs with dusty old piano's, that are just yearning to be played and create an atmosphere ❤
Fantastic pub piano video, great to see everyone having a great time 👍👍👍
Terry you really are the life of the party 🎉 You have the gift 😊 thank you!!
hi Terry miles you Amazing piano player you are a Legend Love this 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️👍
I am trying to recall any old pub/bars in my area of Maryland and the only one I remember is The Horse you Came in on. We have a few around in Maryland that are around 200 years old.
I love the tours as I don't know much about England or the pub tradition. Love seeing the old places still around and of course hearing you tickle the keys on those old Joannas.
load of the locals were filming you really made their and our day Terry, brilliant. Gotta love those old pubs while there's still some around.
I just love your pub piano quests Terry, much more of them, please!!
Absolutely brilliant, Terry you take us in all of these wonderful pubs clubs taverns,ahh man its great, God bless you Terry and you're family🌹🌹🌹
Always great when Terry finds an upright piano in a proper English pub. That's music to my ears! 🎹🎶👏👏
God bless you Terry Miles for your great work, your piano playing, and the joy that you bring to people all over Old London Town and many parts of Britain, Ireland and the world, If I was a rich man i would employ you to play piano at my next ancient 97th birthday but I am so poor event the church mice have packed up their bags and left me on my own, Keep up your great works Terry, teach us the history of old pubs and playing your boogie woogie music
You are 96 years old on this day in this year 2024 of our lord, Anno Domini?
Respect if true. Peace.
That was a BIG success. Love to see the various pubs in England. Thanks Terry and a big thanks to your camera person.
If only we had more Terry Miles! Nice job keeping it alive !
Thank you Mike. Great to hear from you. All the Boogie Best. Terry 🤠👍

Never realized just how lively, spry, and sprightly Roy actually still is! He’s almost as much of a hoot as is Terry.
❤ Yes , I don't actually move much unless motivated ! I was ! lol ❤
Used to drink in a pub in ladywell, the fox an firkin they had a bloke on the piano on a Saturday night, songsheets were handed out and people just sang along, like they would have done 70 or 80 years ago..fantastic atmosphere
Someone needs to do it again, singing brings people together, even in London
Loads of fun, Terry! Thank you!

Thanks for another awesome boogie woogie pub piano 🎹 playing day terry it was great.keep it up dude
Great show. Terry Thank you for the piano quest.
There is actually a proper English pub left in London, what a splendid surprise and thanks for sharing this video Terry!👍👍👍👍👍👍
It would be great if you could organise "an evening with Terry Miles" at these old pubs, I'm sure lots of your followers would come to meet you, plus it would be nice to see these pubs full again & it would benefit the pubs too.
Maybe he could organize a pub piano crawl. Have a group of fans meet and go to different pubs in an evening and drink and listen to Terry jam. Then the pubs can get some business from everyone while Terry plays.
Great idea
What a great performance ! Fantastic finish !
I love it! It would be so cool to tag along to a few Pubs! Carry on Sir!
I'm so glad you found another pub to bless!
I haven't seen your videos in some months now. It's good to be back. Your energy is admirable! Keep up the great work 🇳🇴

I don't know if I'll ever have the opportunity to travel from Canada to anywhere across the drink; however, if I do get the opportunity, I will use Terry's videos as my travel guide lol.

Didn’t expect Roy to be pimping hard in there before Terry had even walked in!
He gets everywhere 🤣
@@TestGearJunkie. No wonder he rolls around London in a pink Cadillac. Dude’s got a girl on every corner.
@@geoffbell7513 ❤ If only 😢 Incidentally it's black ! Terry hasn't noticed though ! ❤
@@cadillacroy Hahaha - rumour has it that you were saying, “yeah, she goes pretty good” as Terry was walking in with the camera 🤣 Love the red outfit and full commitment to the songs.
So cool!
How coooool to have you turn up and play the piano at one’s local pub
