Campaigners fighting to keep the name of the historic Black Bitch in Linlithgow say they are bitterly disappointed their campaign has come to an end, saying the pub’s owners have “ignored 12,000 people”.
Greene King, the owner of the pub, revealed plans to rename it at the start of the year, with thousands of customers expressing their disappointment.
Despite their anger, the name change has been given the go-ahead, following a public consultation, and will now be known as The Willow Tree.
