See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.
A former Enterprise owned pub which was left to die on its feet due to the all too familiar story of lack of investment, poor management and the failed 'pubco' business model, 'The Knocks' as it's affectionately known to locals was closed suddenly and sold to a property developer in August 2016. The locals were outraged and set about the long hard slog of trying to purchase 'their' pub for them to use. After a momentous 19 month struggle the Knocks was eventually purchased by the local community by means of a share issue and re-opened its doors on Saturday 19th may 2018. It is now a thriving community owned and run pub right at the heart of village life. Is used by all sorts of local community based groups and as owned by the locals is well patronised by locals and it's shareholders. Cakes and light snacks are served all day with a fuller menu offered at certain lunchtimes and early evening. More general meals including a pie special night are growing in popularity. Regular quizzes and live music events help support this great little local boozer with 4 real ales sold in good condition
