At last night's branch meeting in the Old White Hart at Lyddington (Weds 13 May), branch chair Kevin Thompson announced that the Grainstore had received the most votes of the three shortlisted pubs and therefore had won our Spring Pub of the Season award.

The runners up were the Plough at Greetham and the Railway at Ketton. Winning pub of the Season is awarded with a place in the Good Beer Guide subject to maintaining the same excellent beer quality and customer service.

A date will be arranged with Richard, Andrea and the team at the Grainstore for the presentation of their certificate.
