Outside the pub, we will add external street access to the walled courtyard garden. The entire outdoor area will receive a full redecoration, including new lighting and signage.

It currently has an indoor market that is open 6 days a week along with an outdoor market on Wednesday’s and Saturday’s. The town also benefits from hosting a Famers Market on the first Friday of every month which is a big draw for visitors and locals to the area.comes to town and on the first Friday of each month the farmers market draws local and visitors alike.
A pub business with potential
The refurbishment and reopening of the Queens will add an exciting new element to the high street. The new operator will be able to build a reputation as one of the best places to meet friends, family or colleagues for a drink. It will also allow people to enjoy watching key sporting events on one of it’s three TV’s. The new décor, walled outdoor area and a welcome range of premium drinks will make this pub stand out over the competition. All we’re looking for is the right operator who understands the dynamics of a high street pub and ideally has knowledge of the local area.
