The Railway Inn, Newnham is an iconic CAMRA award-winning village pub. The property itself enjoys a wealth of character with its stone flagged floors, beamed ceilings and part wood panelled walls with open fires. Since our client purchased the business from a National Pub Company and returned it to its core values - offering quality ales, lagers and ciders - it has established itself as an ‘iconic’ traditional village pub that attracts trade from all over the region and beyond. During our client’s occupation, the business has become well known as a quality public house that offers a number of specialist ciders for which it has won the CAMRA Gloucestershire Pub of the Year Award on many occasions. It previously benefitted from the operation of a Tandoori Restaurant above which helped make this a destination pub for those outside of the village.
Newnham on Severn is a vibrant historic village on the west bank of the River Severn in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire with a rich history dating back to the Romans. However, it mainly developed during Medieval times when it became a major port with links around Great Britain and Ireland and in 1171, Henry II of England staged an invasion of Ireland from Newnham with what is reported to have been 400 ships and 5,000 men which undoubtedly suggests its importance. For many years Newnham was the most successful Gloucestershire town west of the Severn with its role as a port and trading hub. However this declined in the early 19th century with the opening of the Gloucester & Sharpness Canal. Despite this, it has remained a popular residential location as it is only 10 miles from Gloucester via the A48 and within the Forest of Dean National Park, a mecca for tourists and outdoor sports enthusiasts.
The Railway Inn is a detached, brick constructed, cottage style property under a pitched slate roof. It stands on Station Road, just off the main High Street within the village, overlooking playing fields. The property itself is presented in good order throughout, currently offering ground floor trading area with restaurant at first floor and outstanding landscaped rear garden. It is currently a lock up property with no private accommodation available.
