    Something of a surprise to find this one not reviewed by the leading lights of these pages and, I notice, the map presented for Stowmarket Town appears to show perhaps 3 times as many pubs as we have listed on PG - is that just a case of registering them here..?

    The opposite, unfortunately. The map shows all the closed pubs, and there are lots of them! (I haven't checked them all, but a lot have been added by Graham Mason, looking to up his pubs-photographed stats.)

    Ok, but I didn't have the closed-pubs option ticked, so why would they be presented on the map? That's just daft.

    I love ROB's reason for closing The Buxhall Crown - does the uncertainty relate to the pub or the poor landlady?

    Pilcrow closed.

    I thought it was to close anyway, due to development plans?
