What’s yours? Take part in our questionnaire to suggest beers and ciders for when the Masons opens.

Thanks to everyone who took part in the Mason Arms Beer Preferences Survey. Over 80 people completed the questionnaire and made suggestions for the range of drinks that could be available when the pub reopens. The results and comments will be passed on to the new owners and, although it won’t be possible to include everyone’s favourites, the list will help them to choose the final selection.

A big thank you to local rock band Ugly Frog who raised the roof at the Masons on 19th December (you may have noticed that repairs already being carried out).

The Masons Arms pub was very much at the heart of our community and its closure in October 2011 left a gap that has never been filled.  Now, at last, there is, perhaps, some hope that it will reopen in the near future.
