Barge Inn Project

On the morning of 2nd July I made a visit to the Barge Inn Project. The Barge Inn Honey Street is an internationally renowned historic canalside public house and camping site. It is also hailed as the 'official site for the discerning Crop Circle Investigator!'

The pub has been and remains an integral part of the community whether they are locals, canal boaters or the international crop circle communities and a local group has received a £10,000 grant from the Big Lottery SOS project to secure a loan on the pub and develop it as a community asset.


The Project wishes to expand the site to offer new services such as a village shop and post office, activity holidays and the creation of an organic garden. Upon hearing the latter I instantly offered to don the Marigolds and lend a hand! I urge you to visit their website and get involved: www.bargeinncommunityproject.com
