This public house was closed and boarded up for many months. Then some months ago it suddenly re-opened, with a big banner proclaiming "Under new management". Today the banner has gone, but there is a sign outside saying "Run this pub", with a contact number. The pub remains open and it has potential because it's on a busy road and has car parks at both ends. After another period of closure, the pub was converted into a Tesco Express convenience store, which opened in 2012. Image Image
