Lansdown is under new management again. I think you'll find it's an old tenant who couldn't keep away from the place. Good luck Ben.

Good luck to the new tenant then! The pub has not been much at all recently which can't be good for regular trade. A friend was in there when it was open and said even though the pub was clean the beer lines couldn't have been as his pint was nasty! Good luck....

Hopefully Enterprise (who own the building) will be sensible in the way they act towards their new tenant.

I doubt it Huw. Do they own the building or just lease it? Shame, it's in a good place as the last watering hole for the forthcoming Saturdays exodus to Falmer.

Enterprise own the freehold, and tie the tenant to purchasing beer & cider from them

Just beer and cider?

Depends on the tie. Sometimes you can buy one beer and all your cider free of tie, other times you may be tied for all your drinks (as is the case in many Harveys and Greene King leases)
