The Haven asks the public to help keep the community pub going

Brewery says no imminent plans to make changes despite planning application

A pub in the south of the Island is asking for the public's help to keep it as a community pub.

The Haven in Port Erin has taken to social media, stating that times are tough for pubs, adding "if you don't use us, you lose us".

It comes after Mannin Retail submitted a planning application seeking permission to convert the pub into a Subway and Spar.

Despite the application, Heron and Brearley says there are currently no plans to make changes at The Haven.
