Has this place reopened? I went past last night and it looked like there were loads of people inside and out.

Not sure, but walked past at the weekend and there was obvious signs of it being cleared out, tidied up. That stupid tree affair was being ousted! I suppose Enterprise Inns are putting a Manager in, unless they have found a sucker to take a lease.

Enterprise have put a temporary tenant in, who will have first refusal on the full lease.
They re-opened on Monday night and I assume a lot went down there to check it out (I went yesterday and they seem a nice bunch)

I liked the tree. It put off yuppies and posh types from lingering.

Walked past on the way home tonight. No tree, bare walls and they seem to have added 1,000w floodlighting inside.
Looked utterly bleak; I hope the new tenant manages to give it a bit of the old charm back. Used to have the best jukebox in Lewes, too, and I s'pose that'll have gone.

Down and Out & TDA - I heartily agree, you never saw a suit in there - an excellent deterrent.

The tree looked out of place, but it was a nice idea. Hopefully the Lansdown will be a friendly, music loving and inviting place again, and not a overly posh hang out for yobs liserning to the Kiss 100. LOL!
And they will serve cheap local ales and have gigs every week.
Fingers cross.

Wonder if they've cleaned the loos yet? They were the worst toilets i've ever used! Cracking jukebox however, although the best pub jukebox of all time used to be in the Snowdrop when the Mays had it and it was a proper pub. Had some fine music on!
