"It is great to see closed pubs being brought back to life and serving the community again," says Nicola Halton, Business Development Manager for Murphy’s Tavern. He added:- "The owners are local to the area and are passionate about delivering a pub that creates jobs and a community feel for people to enjoy. The new name for the site pays tribute to the much loved roe deer, which are often spotted in the local area too.”
