The council has spent the last two years attempting to get grant funding to reopen The Crown Inn, in Newcastle-on-Clun, for the community.
And now, with a £270,000 government grant awarded in December, drinks will soon flow in the historic pub once again.
The purchase of The Crown Inn was completed today (February 21, 2025) and the venue will be open on Saturday, March 1 from 10am to noon for anyone wishing to view the property in its current condition, before the refurbishment begins.
