Run a Stonegate Pub - Telegraph Northampton, Northamptonshire

About the Pub

The Telegraph is an exceptional public house, beautifully appointed in the historic village of Moulton. The area is a very desirable Northampton village suburb which is now expanding with new housing developments increasing the potential pub catchment. Dating back to around 1730, the building boasts a wealth of charm and character and has a real warm traditional feel. Internally there are three key trading areas; a bar and lounge which are connected by an adjoining door and a 40-cover restaurant which was a later addition to the property, build in 2001. The pub is built in traditional Northampton stone and boasts a beautiful, traditional open fire which is somewhat of a feature. The private living accommodation is in good decorative order and comprises three bedrooms, living room, bathroom, domestic kitchen and office. Externally the large beer garden is fenced in by original dry-stone walls and has a canopy covered smoking solution with outdoor lighting and heating. A car park is available for around 20 cars. Stonegate Pub Partners are now seeking a publican who can introduce a strong quality food offer to draw in additional trade. A publican with marketing skills will be valuable to ensure we capture all trading opportunities to the pub.

Regional Manager's Thoughts

The current customer base is made up of majority locals to the area, however a large number of tourists visit Moulton which encourages the passing trade. This is potential to establish a quality food offering here so the new publican will need experience in food and be able to market the pub effectively to ensure all trading opportunities are captured.
