On Saturday a team of local volunteers arrived early at the former Beacon Public house in Beacon Hill Rise Road, St Ann’s, to bring the building back into use for the local community.
St Ann’s Projects led by Carly Williams & Martin Summerville have spent the last 18 months planting and cleaning up the nearby Moffatt Close community garden, and have now been given access to the Beacon pub to turn it into a new community hub.
The Beacon has been closed for the last decade.
The volunteers cut down overgrown weeds and vegetation, cut the grass, and started the task of painting the outside of the former pub; slowly but surely the Beacon is beginning to shine once again.
