As far as opening hours Paul, it would depend on the permitted  hours held within the current Premises Licence for the pub, we would have to work within these. We have always set reasonable opening hours where it was appropriate for the area and fitting with nearby competition. I would envisage our opening hours to be as follows if our licence permits. Mon-Thur 12pm-11pm Fri 12pm-11.30pm Sat 9.30am* - 11.30pm Sun 12noon-10.30pm *the reason for early opening on sat is we would like to be available to do breakfast/brunch 9.30-12noon The above hours for us seem reasonable for both customers and our staff. Any increases made to the above hours would be evaluated both from our perspective and from a residents perspective.We certainly want to work closely with residents to ensure we are all happy. The current licensing hours permitted as per the property listing are as follows Mon-Thur 11am-11pm Fri-Sat 11am-11.30pm Sun 12n-11pm In reference to your fear Paul that we would leave the pub in unscrupulous hands if we found the pub unprofitable.All i can say again is that we would be committed long term if we were to granted this pub.We know this pub is going to be a difficult site, and it might take some time for it to gain its popularity.We hope though that the people of Brentford notice what we are doing, like what they see, and support us. Our focus though will not just be trying to attract a solid local trade but aim for it to be a destination pub much like the previous pubs we have had a hand in. I can understand the fear that residents have in regards to the fate of The Albany Arms, and what has come before. Theres no denying the pub was a disgrace for a number of years and possibly also when the general area had higher levels of crime based activity than is now. My main point would be that it is irrelevant what problems may or may not currently befall the area, it is  up to the landlord who they allow in their pub and what direction they want the pub to go in.
