The Hikers Rest

Pub saved per Argus, cannot link story from website, however current managers brought out punch taverns.

Here you go .... http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/11766410.Albion_pre_match_pub_saved_by_managers/

And the landlords have sold their home to finance it .... well done them and hopefully people will support them by drinking there.

EDIT - opps, a bit slow !

Great news that it has been saved. With a bit more free rein they can hopefully make the pub the success it should be given it's location and large catchment area.

I think it was pretty successful, it's always been packed when I'm in there - and not just for Albion games. But I'm really pleased it's saved, if it hadn't been it would be more than a mile to the nearest pub (don't think I've ever lived that far away from one before)

Well done to the land lord and lady the residents could help by renting there drives to Albion Fans on Match days to fans using the pub. Show Surport for the local.

Definition according to the always right Wiki, so appears it might be.

A village is a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet but smaller than a town, with a population ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. Though often located in rural areas, the term urban village is also applied to certain urban neighbourhoods. Villages are normally permanent, with fixed dwellings; however, transient villages can occur. Further, the dwellings of a village are fairly close to one another, not scattered broadly over the landscape, as a dispersed settlement.
