Episode Details

The Ancrum Cross Keys, a 200-year-old Category C listed pub in the Scottish Borders, has been rescued by local buyers who plan to restore it and reopen it as a vibrant community hub for dining, drinking, and socializing. Once shuttered in January, the historic property—complete with bar, lounge, restaurant, beer garden, and Ale Water access—is now under new ownership through Crosskeys Property Ltd. The previous owner, John Henderson, sold to focus on farming and retail; the new team is seeking a passionate operator to revive this beloved village institution. Listed at over £235,000, the sale marks a hopeful step toward reinvigorating Ancrum’s local scene with traditional pub charm and future growth potential.
