The Auctioneers Arms "The Knocks" was sold and consequently closed in August 2016. The local people formed a steering group to try to raise money to buy the pub from the current owner, who was an out of the area property developer. After a momentous 19 month struggle the Knocks was eventually purchased by the local community by means of a share issue and re-opened its doors on Saturday 19th may 2018. It is now a thriving community owned and run pub right at the heart of village life.
Quite a funny atmosphere staff a bit unfriendly We had the sunday roast bap with gravy, the gammon was a bit slimy and wasn't appetising my husband had the beef and it was very fatty . I really hate giving bad reviews, the pub was clean and festive is my positive point I'm so sorry to give this review but it's accurate
It's been a local at a couple of times in my life, so very familiar to me. The atmosphere was good which is a testament to the landlord as much as anything else, well done to the community for keeping it going.
Popped in for a bit of lunch and had gorgeous food. Big portion considering it was on Light Bite menu. Got to see some of the art group at work too.
An amazing community pub. Been here a few times this year for food and drinks. Service is brilliant with a great collection of beers and the food is just enough.
Brilliant pub to visit, has a reputation stretching back over decades and now is as strong and successful as ever, highly recommended
