    I'll be tweeting @SirQuinno under the hashtag #RutlandWeekendBeervision

    Wish me luck
    Good luck , I will follow your progress with interest.

    How do these fit into Rutland?


    Belmesthorpe (1 pub), Caldecott (2 pubs), Great Casterton (1 pub), Ketton (2 pubs), Ryhall (2 pubs), Tinwell (0 pubs)
    Googlemap has them all within the county boundary - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ru...14!4d-0.639643

    Rutland disappeared for many years. Does anyone know if the reinstated County had exactly the same boundaries as before?

    Sounds like a great way to spend the weekend. Don't forget to take photographs of the half dozen pubs that are without pictures on this site!

    I believe the "ceremonial" counties have their traditional boundaries, that is those boundaries that came into existence following the local government reorganisation of the late 1880s.

    Talk of boundaries is a can of worms that should be avoided at all times
