I’ve just learned that the Torrington pub in North Finchley is to close after the owners were made “an offer they can’t refuse”. It’s a shame – although I have only been there a handful of times and didn’t think it was a particularly good pub, I can’t help thinking that North Finchley will be blander without it. It doesn’t really leave us with many alternatives!
A little bit of Googling found that a pub called the Torrington has been here since the 1830s. And now it’s about to become an All Bar One or a block of flats.
