A lovely touch for Remembrance Sunday. Thank you to our local florists, TMS at Park Gates, for supplying this beautiful wreath for our entrance.

It’s always wonderful to support local businesses, and we’re proud to mark the occasion with such a thoughtful display as we remember those who gave so much.

This Remembrance Day, we take a moment to remember and thank all those who have served, and those who continue to serve.

At Hogs Inn the tankard, we’re marking the occasion with a free pint of Monty’s when you purchase any main meal.

A small thank you, with a lot of meaning. Lest we forget ❤️

A little trip back in time…

These photographs show The Tankard as it was around 1985–1986. It’s fascinating to look back at how the pub once looked, from the original brickwork and bar area to the layout of the building.

A big thank you to Wayne Oliver for sharing these brilliant photographs with us.

Do you remember The Tankard looking like this? We’d love to hear your memories.
