A community pub in Kingswood has closed suddenly just 18 months after a huge six-figure transformation. The parent company of The Cossham Arms on Charlton Road has said it is working hard to reopen the pub as soon as possible.
Formerly The Warwick Arms, it has been a pub for more than 100 years and has always been at the heart of the community. The building - which is owned by Chester-based Admiral Taverns - was completely gutted in 2021 and reopened under the new name following a £110,000 investment.
The pub was bought in 2020 by two friends who fulfilled a long-held dream of taking on their own local. Ahead of reopening, Dan Finn and Sam Horrell told BristolLive in December 2021 they wanted the new name - the Cossham Inn - to signal a fresh start. It was formerly managed by Laura Robins and Rikki Wyatt.
