CUSTOMER NOTICE – ROAD CLOSURE

From 28th September 2026, Little London will be closed to through traffic from the flyover at the south end of the pub to the junction with Sea Street for approximately six months while essential bridge repairs are carried out.

We remain open and operating as normal. Our car park is still accessible, although the road will be two-way during the closure. The two Pay & Display car parks on Sea Street will also remain open as usual and, as our car park is very limited, we recommend using these where possible. Little London remains accessible on foot.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while these essential works take place. We look forward to welcoming you as normal.
