Ongoing Events Pub Info - due to delays in obtaining planning permission for the houses being built at the back of the G&D, & therefore delays to the commencement of the building work itself, the pub garden will not be reopened at the end of August as planned. Many apologies for this. However, on a more positive note, the renovation of the barn has been completed. This venue boasts its own bottle bar & is now available for hire for private functions - see Mick for more details. Finally, on another positive note, Punch Taverns have carried out an assessment of the G&D & have decided to spend a considerable amount renovating the pub. There is no information as to the start date of the renovation work as yet, but watch this space! Quiz Night - there is a general knowledge quiz every Wednesday starting between 8:30pm & 9pm.
