Really good news, Berney Arms is open!

[NorfolkNog]

Well done Keith, excellent stuff :-)

I sincerely hope that the BA take note of a very clear pattern emerging particularly regarding the aspirations of the freeholder.

Howard, I was trying to find different angles rather than repeating what other have already said, but also struggling with the 2000 letter limit. I think I ended up with just 5 letters spare in the end.  I don't think many applications have received such a response from the public comments sections, all of which are objections. Hopefully the BA do the right thing. I note that even the BA tourism officer who has history as a licensee has objected.

Was there last weekend for the Breydon regatta, I was not  generous customer but most others seemed more than happy with what was going on..

[NorfolkNog]

Hi Clive

 

Glad you managed to get in. Were you not too happy? Can you share with us or would you rather not say?

 

[C.Ricko]

I am always a bit miserable, 

I was there saturday evening delivering the boat  for the Sunday race of the regatta but did not eat or drink there as I did not stay then had to leave for Oulton straight after the prizes.. 

everyone else seemed happy though.

Saw a item on look east yesterday,re planning all for change of use.I do hope it stays as a pub,I know its not easy,but it was always a good stopping off point,before crossing bw.

 

Fingers crossed hoping it stays a pub Ian

Sigh - I've missed the deadline, did the registration thing only to be informed that the comments section is now closed

I must ring the pub as I'm hoping for an overnight stop there in October for 17 of us during our 'Lads Week'

Interesting flood risk assessment on the documents page. Although dated the 12th Aug it has only recently been added to the site. Certainly after I'd made my comments, as I may have been tempted to correct an inaccuracy. It states that there is no risk of a tidal surge as it is inland!!!! December 2013 I was effectively trapped in St Olaves marina for a couple of days after a tidal surge had come up The Yare, overtopped in various places down The New Cut and flooded the A143 between Haddiscoe and St Olaves bridges making it impossible to exit the marina until the water had subsided. Perhaps someone could ask the Environment Agency to stop issuing flood alerts for The Waveney and Yare when there is a storm surge forecast as apparently there is no risk of a tidal surge inland.

We walked from Berney Arms to Yarmouth after catching the train in December 2013 and not long after the surge. It was pretty obvious that the water had come over the top!!!!

[AdnamsGirl]

We caught the train from Reedham up to the Berney Arms yesterday and walked back. It was a tad windy out there! Once I get the photos onto my PC later I'll post some up in the holiday tales section as we've had a Broads weekend away with a bit of a difference.

Nice one Carol, really glad you made it   Look foward to your holiday tale too 

 

Did you find any Trawlerboys perchance?  You did well walking back too

I did a bit of searching around the web looking for a tel number for the Berney Arms - I found - 01493 700303 but that number is no longer current.

Does anyone have a current number I can ring them on please?

Thanks,

Griff

[NorfolkNog]

If all else fails Griff you could try ringing the Beauchamp as I'm sure Mr Hollocks will have the current number for the Berney! Green Jack Brewery may have it too if they are supplying beer there.

Hi Griff,

That was the last number that I had for the Berney Arms.

Regards 

Alan

[kfurbank]

Not sure how up to date it is, but there is a Facebook page with the following number on 01493 700243. Different to the one you already have, so might be current.

[BroadAmbition]

Thanks I'll try it tomorrow and let you know if it is current

Griff

[BroadAmbition]

That's a gud-un - the 700243 number is current - Thanks,

Griff

[ranworthbreeze]

I will amend the forums listing of pubs/hotels/inns.

Many thanks

Does anyone know if it's possible to book a mooring there in advance?

 

[Hockham Admiral]

Not too sure about the pub moorings, Jane, you might give them a bell?

The public (BA) moorings are seldom anywhere near full........... but with all the attention they've been getting recently I'll probably be prove wrong on that!  

[Hockham Admiral]

Thanks for that news, Dave. We were planning to stop there on both our ways North.. maybe outside school-hols time it will calm down a bit?

We've found, Jane, over the years, that the fishing brigade can be very nearly as numerous as the school-hols peeps in September.
