I have just been informed that the pub was sold in March 2016 and is now called the "Sonds Tearooms and General Stores."

Local knowledge, further pictures, and licensee information would be appreciated.

I will be adding the historical information when I find or are sent it, but this project is a very big one, and I do not know when or where the information will come from.

All emails are answered.
