It closed suddenly late September and reopened near the end of last month. Previously managed by Just Pubs, they no longer feature at the pub. The Angle has been distributed around the branch and copies can be found in most real ale pubs, or online <a href=\"https:\/\/sst-arch.camra.org.uk\/dl.php?id=291615\">Angle762610<\/a>. <strong>Also at the beer festival !!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Real ale is back on for a trial period in <strong>The Barge and Barrel<\/strong> in Sunderland City Centre. Meanwhile in the <strong>Washington Arms<\/strong>, there have been several reports that the availability of real ale is spasmodic, off more often than on.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Bamburgh<\/strong> in South Shields has been closed for a few weeks, for a refurbishment. They are pleased to report they will reopen on Friday 6th November. There are some teaser photos on their Facebook page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">One Greene King pub reopens, another one closes. <strong>The New Derby<\/strong> in Roker are now having their refurbishment. They will reopen in time for Xmas &#8211; 2nd December. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"> A couple of other closures you have learnt about in the press. The Grade II listed <strong>Wheatsheaf <\/strong>is boarded up . Also the <strong>Mountain Daisy <\/strong>in Millfield closed suddenly on at the end of October. The latter is a Three star &#8211; A pub interior of outstanding national historic importance and is listed as II*.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Other closed pub news.:- <strong>The Railway Tavern<\/strong>, just along from the Mountain Daisy, has been closed for some time. The premises have been sold and it as been reported this will become a restaurant, albeit a small On. Finally, <strong>The White Horse<\/strong> in South Shields, has been closed for a number of years and up for sale. A planning application has been submitted to the local authority for a change of use.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Compiled by Ken Paul \u2013November 2026<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to this brief newsletter Our Beer, Cider &amp; Music Festival starts tomorrow !
