Lately my little village has been a buzz with excitement as the community has pooled together to form a company to take over and manage our local pub. Plans to expand facilities include a shop to service us and the boat visitors, a fully functioning restaurant, while further dreams include outbuildings with treatment rooms and a place to hold youth groups.
A £50000 from the Prince’s Countryside Fund secured our future!

A leaving party took place on Saturday night and jazz band the Water Rats drew a large crowd, at least a couple hundred people! It is closing for a few days while we give it a quick update, then re-opens about 3rd August. Called a soft launch. It will then display a temporary (August/September 2012) selection of my local paintings and Ink sketches. Obviously it will take quite a few months to get all of our building ambitions in place, do please drop in if you are ever in the area. We have picturesque walks around the boat Dyke to Acle and South Walsham and dogs are very welcome too!
