After a long day or week at work, many of us end up heading into the pub for a drink or two on our way home.
Not only a place to enjoy a pint, it's where we meet friends, catch-up and occasionally stay just that little bit too long. Since time immemorial, pubs have been at the heart of the community, even more so in rural villages.
However, it was revealed in December 2021 that the North East had the lowest number of pubs in the UK, with 37 closing their doors over the year. In recent years, many pubs may have called last orders for the final time - whether that's to have been converted for another use, such as accommodation, or to be demolished.
