A Durham pub with a great sense of community has been named among the best in the country.
"Come for the beer. Stay for the community" is the motto of The Station House in Durham which was awarded runner up in this year's Pub of the Year competition organised by CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale). The friendly pub narrowly missed out on the top spot, which was claimed by the Tamworth Tap.
But The Station House is no stranger to an award and has won CAMRA Regional Cider Pub of the Year in 2017 and 2018. The pub, which opened in December 2015, is located in a former shop unit in the shadow of a railway viaduct.
