This is a view through the window of The Ship Inn. On Shalesmoor. In Sheffield. And, to continue the alliteration, it is shut.
Many pubs in the UK are closed at present because of stricter lockdown measures currently in place. While the rules differ across the four nations that make up the UK (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales), here in England pubs must remain closed unless thay are providing takeaway meals.
This situation will remain in place until early December at least, when the current rules will be reviewed. However, given the desire to allow people to see one another at Christmas – something itself fraught with risk – I don’t expect that pubs will re-open to anything approaching normal rules for a long time.
I suspect there will be fewer pubs come the end of this pandemic.

Nice shot. Love the reflection of the clouds and the light is peaking through nicely.
WE’re beginning the de-confinement this Saturday, starting with non-essential shops reopening. Bars and restaurants will have to wait till mid January at least…

We’re back into Tier 3 rules from next week. These are less restrictive than what we have at present, but not by a huge amount. Non-essential retail re-opening is probably the biggest difference.
