The Yew Tree pub

Dear Villagers,

McMullens have owned The Yew Tree pub for many years and Marcus has been the last tenant to run it in a list of many to hold this position.

Marcus’s current agreement comes to an end on 30th August 2022.

Since the news of Marcus giving us his notice, we have been contacted by some passionate villagers that are feeling aggrieved about his leaving and worried that the site might close.

Here at McMullen’s we pride ourselves on investing in the future of our sites to ensure they are the heart of the community bringing everyone together to share stories over a well-earned pint and The Yew Tree is no exception.

Currently in its present condition this would not be a viable option for all parties; Tenant, Landlord and Customers.

So, once Marcus has left, we will be looking at all our options. Our aim will be to create a sustainable community asset for the villagers, providing we receive the support to do so.

Unfortunately, this means that the site will be closing for a period of time whilst plans are drawn up and a new tenant is found and then when completed you will have a social asset to share and be proud of.

Due to the passionate emails/messages we have received over the past few weeks we are happy to hear your views and thoughts about the future of The Yew Tree.

If you are interested in having your say about the pub then please feel free to contact

to book an appointment with Fergus McMullen who will be more than happy to hear about your ideas.
