'It's about giving the pub back to the village'
When The Lambley went on the market, it ticked every box the Secret Pub Company looks for in a pub. A village location, a sizeable interior, a decent car park, a garden and an open kitchen.
The pub, in Main Street, will officially open for lunch on Friday June 16 at noon and in the evening 200 villagers will get a chance to have a look at the transformation over drinks and canapes."It's about giving the pub back to the village. That should be quite exciting," said Mark."Talking to people they said they used to come here years ago, never anyone before it just shut down, or they've never been.
Lambley is home to two other pubs, Woodlark Inn and the Robin Hood Inn. Mark said:"I hope we are something different to the others but not so out there that they see us as that special occasion place. It's still got to be affordable - another addition to the village. Hopefully that's what we'd created."
It's just six years since the duo opened The Railway. Mark said:"It's flown by. To have four pubs in that time is either stupid or quite clever - I'm not sure which. It's just confidence. The Railway gave us the confidence to do The Radcliffe and you move on. I think we have quite a good blueprint of what we do and people support us."
