Hello

As a neighbour to this pub I've noticed that over the past couple of days its been closed. Today there have been signs put up saying all items of value have been removed. Does anyone have any news on the grapevine as to why its closed?

Only been in a few times but they did a nice Sunday lunch and seemed like a freindly place.

I do know that the management changed hands about twelve months ago, I think. The guy who did all the cooking left. And I've heard that the place was not so well frequented by the old regulars after that.
Shame really. Not too long ago we had the Clarence, the Albion and the Hotel Vic in Albion St. Now there are none.

Shame to hear of another ale house closing. They're cutting their own throats though. I only went out on my own yesterday and it was 20 quid on just a few pints, take the lady out and it costs near 50 and then some big eats on top of that. Why is beer and pop dearer than petrol? On top of that I don't get as many miles to the gallon either.
