All shut up today. Flowers and other tribute cards outside. Anyone know what's happened?

Always enjoyed a pre- match pint in there. Atmosphere safe and beer cheap!

It's for sale isn't it - sure I saw a board up.

Walked past it today - yes, it's up for sale.
Death of another good local boozer!

Thanks both. Think I remember the for sale boards going up towards the end of last season, though they kept the pub open.

Hope all's ok there. As I say, lots of 'in sympathy' type cards laid out on the tables outside.

The pub was closed due to a family bereavement.

Yes, unfortunately the young lad (Reece or Rhys, sorry, not sure of exact spelling) who served behind the bar has sadly passed away. I don't know how but what a shame.
