Punch House to Close
There is a sign outside the Punch House saying it is closing on the 21st of June.
Is it closing for good? Is it being reburbished? Do Tescos have their eyes on it?
Has anyone heard anything?

According to the very handy planning application search tool on wareonline.co.uk i can tell that they're having a new rear kitchen put it...mebbe that's the reason it's closing?

Internal alterations and repairs also to be undertaken. Greene King made a good job of the Rifle Volunteer when they overhauled it.

I would have thought that if it was closing down just for refurbishment it would have said so...

Is that why most naive visitors to this establishment get a nasty shock when they first go in! From what I hear the place needs a revamp, perhaps they'll call it 'The New Punch House' and it will be selling freshly brewed coffee and have a childrens area (but I doubt it)

Why a "naive visitor"?
I have been in the Punch House and it needs a revamp, it's out of date and it does not matter what age you are, it,s a great looking building from the outside but is dissapointing inside. Maybe I am niave if I thought it would be better than it was.
