Please help us to Save our Village Pub




Monday evening saw a turnout of over 180 local people attend a meeting held at the Garboldisham village hall to discuss ways to re-open our sadly decaying Village Pub - the Fox Inn.
This Grade II listed pub which has been in existence since 1774 originally called the Fox and Goose has been closed, vandalised on a number of occasions and finally boarded up for over two years.

Despite a number of attempts from local interested parties to negotiate a lease and more recently outright purchase of the premises the owners have allowed the pub to fall into a state of disrepair - rumour has it - to ease their application for change of use to private dwellings.

Fleurets, the agency initially employed to market the Fox Inn as a going concern were, according to an insider, frustrated at every stage by the owners when trying to place the pub and have subsequently taken the Inn off their lists.

Should you wish to help us save this –once delightful and profitable- village pub please add your name to our growing list of Objectors or write to the following businesses
The Wellington Pub Company, who are a trading arm of Criterion Asset Management, who are in turn a group company of Reuben Brothers - the ultimate owners.
