Pubs Re-opened

It was a sad day when two of our
village pubs closed almost at the
same time - The Fleece and
The Craven Heifer.
Now, The Craven Heifer has
re-opened under new management,
offering delicious Chinese cuisine, 
and The Fleece has also re-opened.
Great news!
And what is more - the former
Good Food Shop, which has been
closed since the building collapsed,
is also re-opening soon as Frewin's Cafe
(during the day) and Bistro (evening.

Details will be added to our Pubs page
