Burn Bullock Public House, 315, London Road - Merton

Former public house, previously the Kings Head Hotel, with C16 interior and exterior features and C18 front. The pub closed in 2009 and was subsequently illegally occupied. In April 2024 the building suffered a very serious fire. The full extent of the loss of historic fabric has not been established (as at June 2024), with the priority being to secure the site and make it safe. Responsibility for stabilisation and repair lies with the landowner. The Local Authority, with advice from Historic England, is urgently exploring options, including enforcement action.
