King of Sardinia pub Brixton and Streatham could be updated

The King of Sardinia in Somers Road, between Brixton and Streatham, would have its windows and entrance doors replaced with double-glazed timber windows, like-for-like, with the same configuration (transoms and mullions) as existing.

However, the new versions would be like-for-like, with the same configuration (transoms and mullions) as existing.

This is known as 'like-for-like'.

The windows would feature the same transoms and mullions as existing.

The pub was a 'notable local landmark' that dated back to at least 1881 and was rebuilt in 1935.

Often mentioned in historical, photographic archives of the area, the pub's permanent closure on 01/01/2003 saw its conversion into residential flats.

After the transformation, it remained a residential property for over a decade.

The application, dated January 26, is now 'awaiting decision' and so the fate of these proposed updates hangs in the balance.

Information on the planning application can be found by searching 26/00221/FUL on planning.lambeth.gov.uk.

There are currently four documents associated with the application.
