Historic Roecliffe pub set to reopen next week
A historic pub in Roecliffe, near Boroughbridge, is set to reopen on April 12 as lockdown restrictions on hospitality are eased.
The Crown Inn, which dates back to the sixteenth century, will open its doors again next week and has already taken bookings for weddings.
Bars and restaurants will be allowed to serve people outside from April 12 as part of the government’s “roadmap” out of lockdown.
Chris Hannon, managing director of Coastal and Country Inns group, which owns the pub, said he was "absolutely delighted" to be able to welcome customers back.

Mr Hannon said:
Mr Hannon added that the pub had taken bookings for weddings from June onwards. Restrictions on social contact are expected to be lifted after June 21.
He said:
The pub was taken over by Coastal and Country Inns in September last year.
At the time, Mr Hannon said the company wanted to restore the pub to its former "glory days".
Its new managers, Lukas and Veronicka Alman, have previously worked at another of the group’s inns in the Peak District.
The pub has been refurbished and is offering food and drink, accommodation and events space.
