Our vision for the future of the Fox!
“Our vision is to create an independent, community-owned pub that is a welcoming village hub offering exceptional food, vibrant community events and genuine connections, while complementing other local spaces within our village”
See our Gallery for more!
● Purchasing the freehold of the Fox Inn from Stonegate
● Setting an affordable rent and operating the pub as a free house
● Re-establishing a successful restaurant offering reasonably priced food appealing to both residents and passing visitors. The pub can only succeed with a restaurant to complement its ‘wet trade’
● Agreeing a lease with a professional and experienced tenant who knows how to run a successful pub business, and who is supportive of our ambitions
● Community involvement in the society to manage, maintain and improve the property, and to ensure community support for and input into, the future success of the pub
● Investing any surplus profits in improving the pub and its facilities for the benefit of the community and paying a modest level of interest to all shareholders
● Refurbishing the outbuilding to create a community café and community hub
● Making the property and garden more sustainable
