Its owners said it has been forced to close due to the rising cost of bills

“We therefore do not feel comfortable continuing to remain open and serving a community that clearly does not want us.

“We have worked incredibly hard over the last three and half years, as has the company for the last seven, through some incredibly hard times, 18 hour days, seven days a week, to try and make the woolpack work. But the complete lack of local support, with exceptions from a certain few, means the pub cannot succeed.

“But the comments we have seen in the last few days shows that it's clearly not a two way street, we are just expected to be here and give, but not expect anything in return. To those who do come in regularly, we are sorry. We will be sad to see you go and hope this doesn’t cause too much inconvenience. The car park will now be closed to the public and will be gated in due course.”
