2025 Opening in Camberwell, SE5

15 April: Local Pub Reopening
Sadly after 14 years The Crooked Well closed down last year. The good news is that the team behind The Baring, N1, have taken on the lease & will trade under its original name of the Kerfield Arms. More info. In the 80’s the fabulous The House of Love played some early gigs there.
