Flood at The Ash

29/5/2019

Due to some unfortunate flooding, we've had to close The Virginia Ash pub in Henstridge for a while to sort things out. We will let you know as soon as we have a re-opening date and will keep you informed on this homepage, social media and of course our own blog page on our website. In the meantime we are still hosting Classics at the Ash, every Last Wednesday of the Month during April to September, from 6.30pm in the car park.
We do hope to welcome you again soon.
