The Foresters is now open! Don't call us - call them!
Thanks to a superb effort on behalf of the CCP management committee, supporters, friends and the new tenants, the pub managed to open its doors before Christmas (just...)
Although the pub is now open for drinks, the restaurant and letting rooms still need some work. It is hoped that these will be up and running by mid-March 2012.

Welcome to the Coverdale Community Pub Website
The Foresters Arms is located in the picturesque village of Carlton in Coverdale in the North Yorkshire Dales nestled under the peaks of Roova Crags and Penhill.
The pub shut early in 2011 after having been an Inn since the 17th century and the Coverdale Community looked into ways in which the pub could be saved. The overwhelming view of the 80 residents who attended the initial meeting was that we should try, in some way, to purchase the Foresters Arms for the community, and bring it back to life.
This website is designed to serve as a communication portal for our efforts to save the pub. Please check out our newsletter section for more information on how you can get involved and help the cause.
