Pyrotechnist's is quite correct; Wheelwright's Arms, a place where a wheelwright drinks, Pyrotechnist's Arms, a place where a pyrotechnist, such as might have worked in the fireworks factory, drinks.

Indeed.


Google is usually Dulwich Fox's friend! It seems to have let him down on this occasion, as a quick google would have shown him that the OP's spelling of the pub name was correct :)


It would even have come up with a picture of the pub, a map and the address :)


The wonders of modern technology, yet again :)

Yes .. I too thought it was The Pyrotechnist's Arms and indeed it is.

But a link to their WebSite also said Pyrotechnics Arms


A very blurred photograph too big to place here (Cannot be bothered to Photoshop and reduce size)

confirms it as Pyrotechnist's Arms.


Apologies for any confusion.


I suspect it will have a name change to forget its history..


The Nunhead Old Stoat and Badger Ale House.. maybe..

I don't think it has a Website.


A site called "Beer in the Evening" has it listed as the Pyrotechnics Arms, and somebody has pointed out in the comments on that site that they have got its name wrong.


Everywhere else that I can see has its correct name.


I doubt very much that its name will be changed after any refurb.


ETA: There are another couple of obscure pub listing sites which have it as the Pyrotechnics Arms. They've probably lazily got their information from the first one, instead of checking it out.

Just for future reference, there are loads of sites where you can resize pics in a zillionth of a second (well, slightly slower).


The one I use is this:

Obviously Photoshop is good for more complex things, but for a simple resizing to lower res in order to post online, there are many quicker and easier options.

    • I have emailed [email protected] with a series of questions about the event including asking how many complaints were made to them and Gala, and how many times the readings went over the limit of decibels allowed, as well as asking about if they are satisfied with the state of the park afterwards and how much money will go directly to the park.  I asked quite a few pertinent and important questions.  Given the replies I think we shall have more ammunition to stop this next year.  However, if replies are refused or not answered in enough detail, a FOI shall be fired off and the responses to that shall be even more ammunition as it would have taken an FOI to acquire it.  Either way shall keep you informed.  If all of you who didn't turn up to meetings this year, turn up and join the rest of us next year, with all the information about how Events and Gala went against their word on what would happen, we may just stop this. Look, I can dream, ok?
