The Butler pub in Chatham Street has stood in various guises as a place where alcohol has been sold since the 1830s making it nearly 200 years old. It has previously served as a wine vault, and has decades of pedigree as a music venue. The building is Grade II listed owing to its age and colourful frontage. But there are fears that The Butler could be at risk due to a plan for 15 flats directly behind the pub at Eaton Place.Although the project was refused by Reading Borough Council's planning applications committee, developer Hamble Residential has appealed to the government's planning inspectorate to get the project approved.
A petition calling for the pub to be saved has received over 2000 signatures on Change.org.
A plea to save an 'at risk' historic pub and music venue that has stood in Reading town centre for hundreds of years is gaining pace., Reading, Berkshire, UK - 06 Aug 2024
