Talk and Walk an Appetite

Posted on by bargeinnhoneystreet

“WALK (AND TALK) UP AN APPETITE – AND LEARN A BIT OF LOCAL HISTORY AT THE SAME TIME!
Local Historian David Carson is starting local history walks of Alton Barnes and Priors – the first one is on Wednesday the 2nd of November, and then every Wednesday throughout November. This is something that David has done before, both for Devizes Festival and for local history societies, under the banner of ‘A Tale of Two Villages’. You will learn a host of fascinating facts covering the two Ancient  churches, what the villages used to look like, the Civil War, and the machinery riots. Full booking details can be found on the Barge Inn website, but here are some of the details. Booking is made by phoning The Barge (01672 851705) . The walks start from St Mary’s Church in Alton Barnes (car parking is available at the church, and also at the Barge Inn) at 11am, and finish at about 12.30 at The Barge Inn. The cost of the ‘walk and talk’ is a modest £10 for adults, and £7.50 for the under 16′s (not really suitable for youngsters under 11) to be paid in cash on arrival at the church – lunch is an ‘extra’ and you should book a table at The Barge when booking your place on the tour. Numbers are restricted to 15 people on each walk, and may be subject to cancelation due to weather conditions.”.

The work and the pressure to finish was hard but staff, directors, volunteers worked alongside the contractors to finish on time. And they did!!

The 16th of April saw the opening of the pub along with a great community event HONEYFEST. A day everyone will remember for a long time as a celebration of a successful launch!

The pub reopens after the sell out local event Honeyfest on the 16th April. So from the 17th book your table, sample our beers and inspect the refurbishments. You will not be disappointed that we are sure!
