Flat-roofed pub

The conservation body Historic England has a project to record the public's interaction with post-war pubs, which includes many flat-roofed establishments.

Many flat-roofed pubs were built in the 20th century as part of local planned communities, such as tower blocks and council housing estates.

As a result of rapid post-war residential construction more pubs were built between 1945 and 1985 than in any similar period of time in British history.
