Whatever guise the Plough re-appears in whether it be good or bad, it must not be deserted and allowed to die or to fall into the hands of developers. Then again, it is quite a lump, you could get a lot of flats in there...

The Plough, East Sheen
Well said gobsmacked, count me in. Why not set up a company and to use your figure, sell 1000 shares at �2,000.00 each. Appoint a manager and a board of directors and we could be in business. As an investment the Plough could, and should be a goldmine. I'm just stuck as to where to hold the AGM...
