The 'landmark' is a company called Intunescent Systems which is in a
hidden small complex opposite, but the pub itself is literally in a garden
shed in someone's garden, we left about 8.30 and they'd had over 100
visitors by then, all very convivial with 79th Highlanders Napoleonic Troop
from Chatham firing rifles and parading colours to honour the occasion.

From an email received 2 September 2014.
My name is Ginny and I have opened the micro pub in Barfrestone, "THE WRONG TURN."
I wanted to thank you for the advertisement on your site, but would
like you to change some of the info please.
Although some people have been intrigued to find out what we have
done here equally some people have not come as they read it was a pub in
a shed at the bottom of a garden.
It is indeed a wooden structure which was an art studio and has been
extensively renovated, it has never been a shed.
It is a detached building away from the main house and the site is a
1/3 acre.
Kind Regards.
Ginny. |

Micro pub will serve local and national ales, ciders and wines at Pie Factory
Road, Barfreston. A new micro pub will be serving up a host of locally brewed beers,
ciders and great wines when it opens its doors this weekend. What will be called
the "Wrong Turn" got its name because people making
their way to what was the old wooden art studio in Barfrestone would
often get lost. The venture is being set up by Ginny Timm, who will be helped by
daughters Victoria and Emily and Emily's fiance, Jamie Kemp. Mrs Timm said: “We're not applying to hold any events and there will be
no live music license, unless there is a special event – and then we
would apply. “It will be like a pub used to be, where people play
cards and board games rather than a juke box and fruit machines". “People can come and jam with their penny whistles, that sort of thing. The Wrong Turn won't just serve locally-brewed beers – there will be many
from across the country. The emphasis is on good ale, she said. “There will be no pumps, all kegs, cider and good wine.” The building has seen a complete renovation. “This has been made possible thanks to help from local tradesmen and
neighbours, especially Derek Wall, from Envirograf, who helped with
getting the building and land ready.” You can find the "Wrong Turn" opposite Envirograf House, Pie Factory Road,
Barfrestone CT157JG. |

The Wrong Turn.
The Wrong Turn .. Good day to all out regulars and customers that have
frequented the Wrong Turn over the last 8 years. It was my intention to
speak to our customers personally to explain the situation we find
ourselves in. Unfortunately due to family circumstances I am unable to
be at the Wrong Turn until 5th June. I therefore thought it prudent to
advertise the news in advance. My family and I started the business 8
years ago and have built the business up successfully, until covid hit
the country. We soldiered on through covid, in the hope, it would
once more resemble our past trading and become more viable.
Unfortunately this has not happened and the business is no longer viable, I have no choice but to close the pub. Since the main house has sold
we find ourselves with considerable less car parking spaces and although
we have been grateful for the temporary use of next doors car-park this
was never a permanent arrangement. I hope the understanding of this
situation will be reasonably accepted by our customers and people within
the village, who in turn will chose to remember all the good times we
have enjoyed over the years and realise change is sometimes unavoidable
to be able to move on. We have raised £500 from proceeds of the raffles
which £100 was given the the RSPCC. We would welcome all our regulars,
long standing customers, in fact any customers lol, to attend on the
last day of trading ,Sunday 12th June to say a big farewell to Lynn, at
4 pm we will be handing over a cheque fir the remaining £400 to a
pilgrims hospice representative. At this point a complimentary drink and
nibbles will be offered to all our customers. Music will be performed
throughout the day, a jamming session will take place later in the day, by our locals!, all welcome to join in..
Yes even u Arthur.. I will
be offering complimentary snacks later in the day.. My essay is now
complete and with sadness I sign off. Best wishes to everyone.. Ginny
and all at the Wrong Turn. |
