Heritage Pub Revival Award

CAMRA has launched a new award to recognise the achievements of a group who have revitalised a historic heritage pub.

Previously known as the Heritage Award, part of CAMRA’s annual Pub Saving Award, the Heritage Pub Revival Award is now a standalone competition, aiming to promote and preserve historic pub buildings, while recognising and rewarding those who run them.

The Heritage Pub Revival Award is open to all pubs on the National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors, at Three, Two or One Star - a list compiled by CAMRA's Pub Heritage Group, which identifies pubs with intact traditional interiors, or which have features and rooms of national historic importance.

Nominations for 2026 are now closed. The winners will be announced in September 2026.

2025 Winner

Vine

The Vine is a perfect example of a back-street Victorian local, hidden away in the terraced streets of Tunstall, with an interior of outstanding national historic importance. The Grade II listed pub showcases classic features such as a partly glazed partition wall, off-sales hatch with an intact rising sash window and a 1950s tiled fireplace.

In 2025, self-confessed cask beer fanatic Steve Burke of Interplan Investments, with his business partners and his partner Lisa Combes, bought the Vine at auction with a clear aim of bringing the pub back to its former glory while respecting its heritage.

Crown Inn

2025 Runner-up

Crown Inn

In the shadow of the iconic railway viaduct, the Crown Inn is one of the oldest standing free houses in Greater Manchester and has an interior of special national historic interest.

The lease was taken on by Alan and Chris Gent of the award-winning Petersgate Tap who as soon as they received the keys in July 2025, embarked upon tastefully refurbishing both the interior and exterior of the rundown Crown, breathing new life into the pub, yet respecting its history.
