The Queens Head in Littlebury has just lost another set of potential licensees who have pulled out at the eleventh hour as they were told they would need to pay for the roof to be fixed!
The pub is now closed and the business has been run down for very long time over the past few years with more people running it than they have sold hot dinners and managers who over winter did not have any heating as they didn't want to pay for it.
Green King if you can't own the pub in the right way then sell it off to someone who can and I just hope that the village has a pub for the future.

Perhaps Green King would like to comment as the pub has been closed for the past few days?
