Oh no! Not another of our beloved old pubs under threat.
The Platform Tavern cannot be allowed to close.
It is one of only 8 original pubs left within a 10-minute walk of it.
In 1878 there were at least 250.
And 30 years ago that was down to only 30.
The pub has important Titanic connections, historic features and is integral to the city's live music scene.
Just two years ago fundraisers saved it after a fire – what a waste if it were to now close.
We must support it, we must buy it, we must do something.
