As per previous discussions here the future of the Berney Arms pub, which is of course served by it's famous request stop has been uncertain.
The Pub is currently for sale by auction and a local group has seemingly set out to purchase it via this crowdfun http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/Berney-arms.
Now I don't know the group, just stumbled on this on social media and thought some of you may be interested!

The pub closed in October 2015 and has been missed greatly by the community and passing tourists since then. The interest generated already in this campaign has led us to apply for the pub to become an asset of community value.
It seems a waste to let this pub be sold on only to be knocked down or converted so we are on a mission to buy it, give it a little spruce up and reopen it for Summer 2017. While much of the funds needed will be raised through community shares, we’re also opening this up to other people who want to be part of this exciting project, help the local community and join us for a few beers when we open.
