The Royal Oak pub in Charlton, south east London, yards from The Valley. A treasured Charlton pub has been saved from becoming another block of flats after a local son and father combo have fought to continue its legacy in the middle of the pandemic. Just 200 yards away from the Valley, The Royal Oak has been a staple of Charlton Athletic match days for years, but with no football fans or even customers for over a year, the local faced demolition. So Bexleyheath residents Kevin Latta and father Robert decided to step in and rescue the pub on Charlton Lane in an instinctual decision to keep the venue alive.
