Interesting little factoid for you.
Corsair was owned by the same people who used to own Stairways and the Woodside.

They had all three places at the same time, as well as a few other pubs.
That's pretty much all the info I've got.

Yeah that's the guy.
Could be they are being targeted by someone with a grudge.
Pretty sh!tty way of acting though, it affects more people than just the owners frown
Or it could be they are just really unlucky.

Was it really, thats interesting to know.
Hope this is going to be investigated.
Just think the Woodside was on its own which wouldnt make anything else o on fire same as the corsair, and they couldnt do it to Stairways coz theres cameras all around there and its ajoined to other buildings.
