the CAMPAIGN 

AIM

  • To preserve The White Horse public house and return it to use as a country pub/ cafe/ restaurant serving Kimpton village and its surrounding community

 VISION

To create:

  • A food-led pub serving locally sourced traditional ales, other drinks and quality food from the pub kitchen
  • A daytime café service offering quality coffee, tea and refreshments to the many walkers and cyclists who use the footpaths and cycling routes around the village
  • A social hub for the village and its numerous clubs and societies

PLAN

  • Purchase and renovate The White Horse through a Community Benefit Society with funds raised through community share investment, complemented by additional grant funding from various local and national schemes
  • Maintain an open and constructive dialogue with the owner to negotiate purchase of the pub and seek to pay a fair price for the freehold in line with its market value as a pub
  • Campaign to protect The White Horse status as an Asset of Community Value, Grade 2 listed building and its designated planning use class as a pub
  • Restore the image of this precious conservation area by renovating the pub’s High St frontage – the moment freehold is acquired
