A BARKING pub has been shortlisted by real ale campaign group CAMRA as one of Greater London's top drinking establishments.

The Britannia, in Church Road, is one of 12 finalists in CAMRA's Pub of the Year competition 2009 for the outer regions of the city.

Branches of the real ale enthusiast group are currently judging each pub on its merits and will decide a winner in June.

That pub will then go forward into the regional final stage and then into the national competition.
