Landlady 'overwhelmed' by community support after historic Grade II listed pub reopens
The landlady of an historic Grade II listed Shropshire pub that has reopened having been restored to its former glory says she has been "overwhelmed" by the support of the community.
The George Inn in Ludlow had been a Pizza Express since 2015, but before that was a public house under numerous names for more than a century.
Oakman Inns converted it back to a pub after a £2 million redevelopment, and the historic Ludlow pub finally reopened its doors last week.
Anna Mahey, the general manager, said she was "proud" of her new 45-strong team, adding: "We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive comments and warm welcome from the community.
“We’re delighted with the way The George looks: from our new pub sign and heritage house colour to our dining areas and terraced garden with our pretty flower beds and vertical, living wall created by local landscaper Humble-Bee.
