This Pub Was Frozen In Time Under A Mall

I’m surprised it survived, actually. The Green Man was a pub in Loughborough, Leicestershire that was shut down in 1993. The bar is still surprisingly intact, even if a new mall has been built above it. From murals, to propped up benches, to empty pint glasses all over the place, and to bags of peanuts on the bar, this place feels like it was frozen in time:  

Although the pub has been visited by potential developers, they all decided against taking on the job.
Speaking in 2011, Baljit Kooner, Carillon Court's manager, said: “Developers looked at it a couple of years ago, but they were put off by the cost.
“Lots of pubs seem to be being bought by Tesco to make them into Express stores. But I don’t think even Tesco would want to put a shop down there.
"The whole place looks like a castle inside, the pictures are very impressive.
“It is also pretty clean as well – there are not as many cobwebs as you’d think.”
