Once a favoured haunt of the urban75 crew back in our tight-trousered, hard rockin’ days, the Intrepid Fox has been a legendary boozer on the music scene for decades.
Once patronised by the likes of Mick Jagger, Rod Stewart, the Sex Pistols, Zodiac Mindwarp and hellraising actor Richard Harris, in latter years the pub had become one of the last rock’n’roll boozers left in central London.
With only a month’s notice given of its impending demise, a hastily assembled campaign was started to try and save the pub but was unable to prevent its closure in September, 2006.
