The new owners of a historic Herefordshire pub which closed during Covid have announced the date for its reopening.
Black Country Ales took on the Plough Inn in Ross-on-Wye this spring after it had lain vacant for six years, and has recently been seen painting new signs on its front and side walls, indicating it will retain the name.
Now the Dudley-based firm has confirmed the date for grade II listed pub to reopen.
“We are very pleased to be opening The Plough Inn on Over Ross Street on Thursday November 19 as a traditional Black Country Ales pub,” its operations manager Anthony Walker said.
He confirmed the pub will serve a range of Black Country Ales and guest beers, together with ciders, wines, spirits, soft drinks, and traditional bar snacks.
“We hope the Plough Inn will become a popular meeting place for the people of Ross and look forward to opening the doors and welcoming the local community,” he added.
The move marks Black Country Ales’ third acquisition in the county, following the Orange Tree in Hereford, which it took on in 2023, and the Roebuck in Brimfield in the north of the county which opened earlier this year.
It also owns the Market Tavern in Tenbury and the Unicorn in Ludlow, among a total of nearly 60 pubs, generally with a traditional, drinks-first flavour, across the Midlands.
