The Hare and Hounds went the same way years ago.

I doubt that it's developers Mike, more likely the local yobs doing their thing.

Why do Yobs seem to pick on derelict pubs more than any other type of building for their incendiary games?

A certain land owner or developer slipped them a tenner?

I certainly doubt that it is someone who likes to take pictures of fire engines in action!
