Maida Vale, London, April 26th 2015. Dozens of local residents and regulars gather outside the much loved, partially demolished Carlton Tavern in Maida Vale to protest against its sudden, illegal demolition by property developers. They demand that the pub, rebuilt in 1920 following a World War One zeppelin bombing is once again rebuilt brick-by-brick, saying that any fines levied by the council will have een factored into the development budget. PICTURED: David Samson whose father William was Landlord of the Carlton Tavern from 1968 -1978 addresses the gathering.
