The Ox & Plough is an established community pub located in the town of Washington, Tyne & Wear. Historically part of County Durham, it is the ancestral settlement of the Washington family, which George Washington descended from. Located on an community estate surrounded by families and alongside the local parade of shops establishes the Ox & Plough as hub of the community. Access via local busses which run frequently with stops alongside the pub and the benefits of a shared community car park provides a huge boost to this site, alongside the surrounding woodland which is ideal for walkers and with the nearest pub almost a mile away increases the opportunity to drive footfall from the surrounding households.
Pub Layout
The Ox & Plough benefits from two separate trading areas. The main bar area is home to televised sports, darts board and pool table. The fixed seating along the walls mixed with high bar stools and loose tables and chairs provide the informal feel. The lounge area which has been tastefully refurbished is enhanced by the predominant bar, traditional furnishings and log burner providing a warm and inviting feel. A few steps leads into a small raised area with a mixture of fixed & loose seating with access to French doors leading out to the beer garden which has beautiful views overlooking the woodland area directly behind the pub. Site benefits from the community car park making this the perfect destination food site.
The private accommodation is located on the first floor of the pub and comprises: Three large bedrooms, a kitchen, living room and bathroom.

The Ox & Plough requires an experienced licensee (s) who have run a pub and food establishment previously. The applicants must have the passion and knowledge of running a successful community local and are who are cheerful and sociable and are willing to build a great rapport with the local community whilst being the friendly and welcoming face behind the bar. The ability to cater for different groups of people from different age groups and background, continuing to support the current customer base whilst attracting other less frequent users is essential. Marketing the function room, a better and more profitable bar line up alongside a traditional, more affordable food offering will help delivery income growth. Excellent retail standards, a calendar of regular sport & entertainment and a good knowledge of the local area will be helpful as the pub is much loved by the locals and has the scope and location to be the hub of the local community.
