Uxbridge, Middlesex, The Chiltern View Tavern c1906

Uxbridge, Middlesex, The Chiltern View Tavern c1906. It looks like a cycling club meeting, the cyclists all wear a cap with a badge on it. The Chiltern View Tavern is in a sorry state now, boarded up and unloved. I think it closed its doors for the last time in 2006. I'm sure it won't be long before it is demolished and the site used for more luxury flats. A more detailed view is shown below. Click the pictures to enlarge.
