Active Campaign

The historic pub closed down after the long-term tenants departed. Fearing that the property would be sold off by Brakspear for residential redevelopment, local residents mobilised. The Five Horseshoes Community Group successfully applied to register the pub as an Asset of Community Value (ACV) with the South Oxfordshire District Council. The ACV status has triggered a legal moratorium period, and the community group have launched a Community Share Offer to buy the freehold. See this article for more details.
