Community raising funds to do up 16th Century pub

A community group is hoping to raise money to refurbish and reopen a 16th Century village tavern.

The Brockweir Inn Community Benefit Society (BICBS) purchased the pub in the Gloucestershire Wye Valley in December 2024 after 395 founder members invested £387,500.

The society launched a new share offer on 1 June, which will end on 15 July, to raise as much money as possible to renovate and reopen the inn.

Each shareholder will be given an equal say on how they would like to see the pub run, regardless of how many shares they bought.
