The Forester pub is located in Ealing, on the border of West Ealing and Northfields. It is a lively, welcoming pub, with two bars, one traditionally for larger groups, meals and access to the garden; the other often booked for events. 

It happens to be my local, so I know it well. When I first moved to the area it was a bit of a 'dive'. Only one bar was open and there were frequently no more than a handful of locals inside. It had sticky tabletops and a jukebox, and a 'home-made' children's climbing frame in the garden which would not pass any health and safety tests today.

The pub had a huge refurbishment. The excellent Thai restaurant remained, and the entire pub was open for business. It still attracts film crews and you will see the interior in many TV shows and adverts. It was the 'local' for the team from 'New Tricks' (Denis Waterman was often outside having a fag), and more recently David Schwimmer had a fight inside (in a TV comedy).

There are two prints available: Day and Night. This one features the atmosphere in the evening, when the string of lights are on inside as well as the garden, and in the trees outside. There is a great atmosphere whether you are inside or outside, with live bands playing on some occasions, and many memorable evenings have  culminated with a dance to 'The Irish Rover'.

All prints are available in two sizes and are archival giclée prints on luxurious 300gsm Hahnemühle Fine Art paper. Each one is signed by the artist.
