Did not realise it was still there. No signage ?


Probably waiting for a Sign Writer who can spell Pyrotechnics as opposed to Pyrotechnist's


Opposite the site the Brocks Fireworks Factory off of Nunhead Lane. Brock Street is opposite.

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.

    • In the past there has been a spate of thefts like this  around days like Mother's Day. I had all mine stolen once, recently planted up. When I phoned my insurance company, they would only pay out for the window boxes, not the plants and compost, so I didn't bother pursuing it. The police said there had been lots of similar reports. I now chain mine to the window sills.
