Berwickshire village comes together to put pub back on tap
A community is coming together in the hope of reviving a Berwickshire village pub.
The Ayton Community Pub Group is seeking the support of anyone who wants to see the former Black Bull at 23 High Street back at the heart of the village.
Latterly the pub was transformed into the critically acclaimed Hemelvaart Bier Café, though it is now permanently closed.
The building had operated as a traditional village local before its reinvention as a continental-style craft beer destination.
Now a small group of Ayton residents have come together to reopen the premises.
A spokesperson for the Ayton Community Pub Group said: “We have made some good progress so far and are now at the point where we want to share an update on this with the rest of Ayton, as well as share our plans and next step.
“So, if you live in Ayton, and want to find out more – please join us at our first public meeting in Ayton Community Hall on Wednesday, August 26, at 7pm.”
