Geocache Description:


Number 19 in a series of caches to celebrate all those local pubs that we have lost over time either to being converted for other uses such as housing or restaurants, or have been demolished and something else built on the site.


The Crown, Britannia Road, Bedford

The Crown was situated at Number 1 Britannia Road, Bedford. The pub closed circa 2013/14 and a planning application was submitted in Feb 2015. This planning permission was subsequently granted and the pub was converted into a privately owned residential care home for a maximum of 7 residents who are all younger adults with learning difficulties.

If you would like to expand this series the pub in question must meet this criteria: The pub must be closed and no longer able to operate as a pub again. Eg. The pub has been knocked down, turned into flats or a supermarket, etc.

The pub does not qualify if it is just closed or boarded up as it can still be used for its purpose and therefore not "lost" just unavailable at present.

If the location meets this criteria please contact The Cooke Family through the messaging centre here https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?guid=e6925df2-b8d1-4661-adb9-1488a3cb414d so that they can issue your lost pub its unique number and add it to the database.
