Are you getting ready to say goodbye to Lewisham’s popular Wetherspoons pub?

The Edmund Halley pub, in Burnt Ash Road, is set to permanently close its doors on December 30.

Eddie Gershon, a spokesperson for Wetherspoons, “appreciates” that both customers and employees will be “disappointed” with the decision.

He confirmed that no one will be made redundant, and all staff will be employed at another Wetherspoons branch.

In September, Wetherspoons also announced that five pubs across south London were put up for sale.

The chain made a commercial decision to sell the pubs which will continue to operate as Wetherspoons outlets until they are sold.

The Edmund Halley was not in original list of pubs for sale.

The Wrong Un in Bexleyheath, Bankers Draft in Eltham, the Asparagus in Battersea, the Capitol in Forest Hill and the Foxley Hatch in Purley are currently up for sale.

So if you’re a regular at the Edmund Halley and now looking for another pub to go to for a drink, look no further.
