Alperton: The Chequers public house
There has been a licensed premises known as The Chequers on this site, at the junction of Ealing Road and Stanley Avenue, since at least 1751. However it would appear that the pub's days are numbered because Brent Council have, subject to several conditions being met, granted planning permission for the demolition of the pub and the erection of a new building comprising 32 self-contained flats and 2 retail units.

There is a photograph of the pub here LinkExternal link dating from around 1910 showing a chequerboard pattern in the main gable end, which has since disappeared, but the Art Nouveau tablet above it, with the words "The Chequers Inn", is still present.
