Villagers have united to save the historic boozer through a community ownership scheme.

In April, the society was awarded government Community Ownership Funding and Revenue Funding amounting to £300,000

And 80s pop star, Hadley has joined the cause to raise another £300,000, as reported by What’s The Jam.

Hadley, 64, said: “We must preserve our pubs.

“We have to save The Hundred of Ashendon.

“We have to raise £300,000 to match the Government’s pledge of £300,000.

“So please save our pubs.”

The Ashendon Community Pub Society Limited has launched a Community Share Offer to become a member of the community benefit society and a co-owner of the 300-year-old pub.

Luke Jamieson, chairman of ACPS, said: “By becoming a co-owner, shareholders will save this historically significant pub from being lost forever.

“They help recreate a welcoming space for dining, socialising and community events, help maintain intervillage connectivity, and the residential desirability of the area.

“They may also potentially earn interest on their investment after three years, subject to surplus income and terms. We hope people will join us in making local history.”

It has already received pledges to a total of £168,800 and hopes the wider community and local businesses will come forward to pledge whatever they can to ensure success.

A Community Benefit Society is a legal organisation registered with the Financial Conduct Authority. Investments are primarily social value investments.

The Ashendon Community Pub Society, grounded in an inclusive community-focused vision for the pub, is welcoming anyone over the age of 18 to buy shares with a minimum investment of only £100.

Shares can also be bought as gifts or on behalf of children.

The Share Offer closes on August 4.

The pub closed over a year ago, and without it, residents of Ashendon and its surrounding villages are feeling disconnected.

The village is rural without services that typically provide connectivity or interaction:

There’s no shop, café or school.

The bus service is very limited with only one bus twice a week.

And even fast-food delivery services are not available.

Neighbouring villages of Westcott, Winchendon, Wotton Underwood, Chilton or Dorton are also without a pub and they have made Ashendon pub their ‘local’ for many years.
