Moves to turn it into a social club
The future of the Pinewood pub in Pulrose could be secured, with the possibility of it becoming a social club.
There was disappointment in the community when owner Heron and Brearley announced last month it would be closing the pub in early July.
But a public meeting held on Friday night saw more than 60 people go along, to try and work what could be done to save their local.
South Douglas MHK Bill Malarkey was there, too, and says people are rallying around:
New Year Honours for six Isle of Man residents
President of Tynwald Laurence Skelly receives OBE
Energy security likely to be 'major issue' in election
MHK expects gas exploration and net zero to feature in 2026 campaign
2025 a 'busy year' for Victim Support Isle of Man but work continues
Charity working on response to new UK strategy
Flexible alcohol licensing pilot could take place in 2026
DHA considering ways to vary special events licensing
