    Default Barnstaple name changes

    The Rising Sun is now The Riser and La Spirit is now called The Oaks which is a sort of Cafe Bar come restaurant

    Yes you are right OB about the Rising Sun it is different pub .I will check out the Riser and submit it as a new pub.I was not concentrating as I think I have lost the last 6000 or so pub photo

    I'm not sure it is two different pubs, the Facebook page has both names, it may just be that "The Riser" is a nickname. The Post Office has the Rising Sun at 87 Boutport St and Google street view has both names on the same building.

    Your solution of renaming this pub The Rising Sun (aka The Riser) looks like a good idea to me.
