At a recent meeting of Wadhurst Parish Council it was agreed that we would petition local residents to see if you would support making this public house an Asset of Community Value (ACV). This means that if the building was ever going to be sold to someone who wasn’t going to run it as a pub, the Parish Council would be notified, and would have six months to raise the funds to buy it on the open market.

Too many pubs have been turned into housing and Wadhurst Parish Council are determined to do all we can to prevent losing any more.

Please note you must be on the electoral role (ER) in Wadhurst to participate

If we are successful in making this building an ACV we will be conducting further polls to see if residents would support a community buy out.

This has nothing to do with the present operators of this pub who are making a tremendous effort in very difficult times and deserve all our support.
