Thousands of pubs are closing around the country, partly because the world has changed and partly because the pubs are owned by what are in effect property companies rather than the breweries of yore. There was a big thread on ChiswickW4 about plans to demolish the Packhorse and Talbot: it seems that the pub is profitable but the site would be worth more with a different building (I guess a block of flats with a bit of retail). The owner of this (Packhorse) site is a company registered in Panama which is itself owned by other obscure companies and nominees - ie, nobody really knows who owns it. In truth, it may be that there are more pubs in Brentford than the market can sustain, especially after Griffin Park goes.
