Limpley Stoke historic pub reopens after being saved by community

Mr Coombe added: “This is a place where everyone will be coming together, meeting, chatting, getting to know each other, gossiping, and that’s what makes a true community.”

As well as inviting local people to invest, the not-for-profit community organisation also received a series of grants to help restore the pub to its former glory.

These included £300,000 from the government’s Community Ownership Fund and £10,000 each from the National Lottery and the Swindon-based Hills Group Ltd.
