The Old Parr's Head, still trading, February 2013
The Story
A Charrington local on Blythe Road in West Kensington, listed for Charrington IPA in every edition of CAMRA's Real Beer in London from 1975 to 1981; the 1979 guide called it a ‘two bar local’. It was still open in 2013, closed in 2014, and had been converted to housing by 2016.
