ON THE back of a couple of new public house drinking establishments opening, I felt compelled to write about how sad it was to see the old Folly/Freemansons now closed.

A note advises that it is shut for issues with the drains but there seems to be no work being completed.

As good as it is for the town to enhance and embrace new businesses we should surely not lose track of our old historical establishments.
