GLASSES will clink and cheers will be heard on Saturday when Week St Mary will, once again, have a pub in the village.

Whitstone man Jason Orchard and his daughter Annabelle will open the doors to their new venture, the Old Orchard Inn at noon.

Jason said it has been the biggest single venture of his life, but he hopes that customers old and new will support him.

The pub, formerly the Green Inn, closed around two years ago and at one point, it looked set to become a dwelling after planning permission was granted to turn it into a house. But Jason has bucked the trend of rural pub closures and has decided to give the village back its local.
