I am looking for a licensee (s) who is local to the area and can demonstrate the drive and passion to ensure the pub remains at the heart of this community. They’ll need to ensure there’s an excellent entertainment programme in place along with good quality beers and ales. A strong marketing plan would be essential to ensure it is the go to pub everyday of the week
