Historically, this pub has been a place for villagers to meet up and socialise. This is still true today.

It’s the heart of the village and a vital community asset. Someone paid too much for it and mismanaged it. Why should the government reward them by allowing conversion to residential when the previous owner was able to run it successfully for many years

The pub is integral to village life and the last one in the Donheads - it must be saved!!

My Airbnb guests are missing having this destination pub to walk and drive to. So many lovely walks to incorporate too. Bring back this essential community hub!

If the local community wish to buy it to retain a pub and their offer is sufficient there is no moral reason to let the vendor sell it as a residence.

This is our wonderful local pub that we can walk to, and it has been a community hub for many years and it would be SUCH a shame to see it turned over to residential use , esp as nearby Donhead St Mary does not have a pub either.

Far too many historic pubs have been ignored by british heritage and our governments and been allowed to be closed , demolished or converted for other uses . These buildings are our history and in many cases a social meeting place where otherwise lonely people might miss out on socialising and making friends . This is just one Tavern that I happened across and fully intend to make a journey to sit in and meet a community who deserve to have a voice and a choice

The Forester was a great meeting place and social hub. Without a pub (and having no shop) the village has become just a collection of houses.

The local pub is a vital asset for local residents as well as visitors and the wider community as a focal point to share interests and support activities.

A local pub is so much more than grabbing a drink. It is a place to bring people together and create memories. What a shame it would be to see yet another pub lost.
We need our pub back
