A COMMUNITY-owned pub has been named Pub of the Year by the South Oxfordshire branch of Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).

The Crown Inn, in High Street, South Moreton, was also named Cider Pub of the Year and will be included in the 2022 Good Beer Guide published by CAMRA.

It won the award for its “comfortable decor, warm welcome and great service,” as well as its “strong community focus and high quality, real ales and ciders in excellent condition from small, local, independent breweries.”
