Why are fewer English people going to their local pubs for a drink? Are they aware that many pubs are shutting down due to lack of customers?

They need to offer either food of a quality you can’t get at home (true gastro-pub experience) or alternative entertainments - live music, poker nights, sports viewing etc.

Back in the day (early 20th century and before) the English pub offered things you couldn’t get in a working-class home:

Entertainment (pre TV and radio)

If I get served by someone else's papers, am I legally required to inform the person that they got served, or the court that they served the wrong person?

The pubs with the best chance of survival long-term recognize that they can’t just get away with the same 3 beers, ropey wine and pub-grub. Why pay more for something worse than you can get at home for less?
