The Fairstead pub – revisited

THE demise of The Fairstead pub was celebrated with a special family fun day.

The pub's burned-out shell was demolished last month after residents said they had wanted to see it razed to the ground. Celebrations to mark the end of the pub, in Eastfield, on the Lynn Estate, were organised by the Fairstead Area Neighbourhood Group.

Chairman Walter Glynn said residents wanted to celebrate the end of an era "and the reputation that went with it." He thanked those who attended and volunteers for their support.

The event included balloon races, barbecue, car boot sale and cake.The site has been bought on behalf of the Improving Neighbourhoods Board by West Norfolk Council using Government funding.

Its future will be decided once a number of options have been explored.
