A Sinking Pub

April 2015. The pub was built in the late 1800s, on a bog, on a wooden raft-like structure. The bog was later drained, creating a problematic situation for the pub as the water level went down and the pub could no longer ‘float’ as it had before. As it settled, it did so unevenly and it hasn’t completely stopped. – Well this is the version provided to me by a local at the pub. The floors have been redone so that they are currently level, but that is about all that is.
