Surely that is discriminatory????

It may well be, but it doesn't mean that is illegal. I'm not here to defend this position, but they may have listed building issues that make it impossible to alter things to suit the fire authority, etc.

We would all like equality - until we find ourselves with a blind airline pilot....

Was thinking the same, they probably can't legally alter the building so there is nothing they can do.

Result!

Great outdoor oven baked pizza X3, well worth the (yet another) visit.

this sounds amazing.. is this sort of shenanigans still going on while the good weather is persisting, do you know?

I would suggest you ring them on 01889 508 234 to be sure - they do plan for it to be working on the last weekend of this month, I believe - but this weather may provoke some interim action..

Went to a family 50th birthday bash recently. Elderly relative + electric wheelchair + copius amounts of cider = much hilarity.

We can land a man on the moon but cunna get a wheelchsir in a pub......
maybe if they had the budget that was available for putting a man on the moon they could maybe fund the access and if they did not have to deal with the council and the nightmare it is to be able to do anything to a listed building.

My brother is in a wheel chair and it is disappointing not to be able to go to certain places. The Holly Bush are not the only place without wheel chair access but at the end of the day my brother nor I hold it against them. Given the limited space inside the practicality of having some one trying to move around once inside the building would also be an issue.

Already looking forward to the pizza(s) this weekend, i've heard whatever the weather, the outdoor 'event' is going ahead.

Surely Miss Summer can give us another glorious sunshine filled weekend!

Today's cycle-out was the Holly Bush again - turkey curry, toffee sponge and two pints of Guinness.

The blast down Sandon Bank on the return was truly excellent - nearly turned round to do it again..

Popped in my self, after the march Saturday, for a little sandwich and a Kopparbergs.

If any staff are listening in, can you get the managment to do something about the slight stench of p155 in the back room (next to the garden), i'm not a fan of that room but needs must, when the other rooms are full.
